This Publication Scheme brings together key information about our homes, services, performance, spending and how we work with our tenants to improve what we do.
STAIRs stands for the Social Tenants Access to Information Requirements. It is a new government standard designed to make it easier for people living in social housing to access information about their landlord and the services they provide.
The new requirements are being introduced in two stages. From 1 October 2026, housing associations and social housing providers, including P3 Housing, must publish key information for tenants to access. From 1 April 2027, tenants will also have the right to request information directly, and landlords will be required to respond within 30 days.
The following information only applies to P3 Housing tenants.
You can find our full STAIRs policy here.
This webpage brings together useful information from across our website in one place, making it easier to find out how we manage our homes, how we’re performing, how we spend money and how we work alongside tenants to improve our services.
The information is organised using the categories set out in the Social Tenants Access to Information Requirements (STAIRs) and includes links to the reports, policies and information we already share. We’ll regularly review and update this information to make sure it stays accurate, accessible and easy to understand.
If you can’t find the information you’re looking for, please get in touch and we’ll be happy to help. From April 2027, you’ll also be able to make a formal STAIRs Information Request for information about how we manage our social housing services.

P3 Housing manages its own homes and as well as some on behalf of its parent organisation, P3 Charity. As a result, some of the policies that are found on this page as part of our publication scheme are P3 Group policies that apply to P3 Housing rather than standalone P3 Housing policies.
P3 Housing publishes new and revised policies upon receipt of Board approval. We are currently awaiting approval for the following:
We aim to publish these following our next Board meeting on 5th November 2026.

Publication scheme review process
If you think information that should be available through our Publication Scheme is missing, you can ask us to review this.
If you believe we have not published relevant information that we may hold and which you believe you may be entitled to, you should let us know under our STAIRs publication scheme review process by contacting us at governance@p3charity.org
We then carry out a review within 30 calendar days of receipt and provide you with a response. Additional time may be required in certain circumstances and, where this is the case, we will keep you up to date with the reasons for delay and the expected response time.
If you are dissatisfied with our response to the review, you will be able to directly escalate this to the Housing Ombudsman under the terms of the Housing Ombudsman Scheme.
Responses to requests for reviews will inform you of your right to access the Housing Ombudsman scheme.
