  • My experience with DWP has been amazing. I’m very pleased with the service that I have received and I couldn’t thank you enough.

    E Southern | Boscombe

  • Just to Holla a message of my thanks for the recent refurb of the shared bathroom at my place in Borthwick Rd, Boscombe….Speaking as a high-end painter n decorator myself, its good to see all concerned delivering a very professional finish. My thanks to the lads who done it and to DWP for investing into the well being and comfort of your tenants. This for me is where the ‘social housing’ end of the market meets the posher end and bridges important gaps.

    Mat | Boscombe

  • I am very happy with the property, new carpet and new kitchen!

    R. Ramsey | Boscombe

  • Thanks everyone at DWP we’ve now bought our own flat, having been able to save a deposit because of your cheap rent. A big thanks to the maintenance team the guys always made me feel very comfortable when they came in to do any work. We have no complaints – if anything didn’t work – the maintenance team would come out and fix it. My cooker broke, they sent a new one within a couple of days. We’ve been very well looked after.

    Jo | Boscombe

  • My experience with DWP Housing has been excellent. Emily Walker helped and guided me through the whole process. This is my first time living on my own and I was nervous at first but working with Emily made the process easier and made me feel at ease with it all.

    A Webster | Bournemouth

  • Very helpful and friendly. Lovely flat and if I experienced any problems these were sorted as soon as possible.

    Jade | Ferndown

  • Can I just say a huge thanks to Michele and team for the help and support helping me moving back down from up north even going the extra mile and letting me move in on a weekend after the office hours, it just shows the service I got was above the duty and so glad to become a tenant of DWP.
