You may have seen or heard of the exciting news that we have recently joined Sanctuary Housing as a subsidiary. Sanctuary are one of the largest housing associations in the country with over 120,000 homes and like Johnnie Johnson, has been in operation for over 50 years. We have introduced a condensed 4.5 day working week for colleagues, which means our offices close, and we finish working at 1pm on a Friday. We believe this is a great extension to our already flexible lsquo;My Lifestyle rsquo; approach. This way of working has been endorsed by Sanctuary and will continue until we are fully integrated into their organisation, at which point Sanctuary will review this way of working
