The UK's most up-to-date social housing and public sector news website
Looking for a home? Want a career? Like to get involved in your community or simply pay your rent or report a repair? Shoreline’s newly improved user-friendly and accessible website meets all your needs.
www.shorelinehp.com has been redeveloped to include all the information and advice that residents, future employees, the media and existing or prospective tenants require.
The website can now be used to:
• apply for a home
• quickly and easily pay your rent
• report a repair, day or night
• make a complaint or compliment a service
• apply for a job with Shoreline
• apply for older people’s accommodation
• get involved in your community
• find out news on all the latest regeneration projects
To celebrate the launch, residents of North East Lincolnshire also have the chance to log on and win a 32’’ Philips LCD television kindly donated by Shoreline’s partners Bullock Construction and Mears. Simply log on to the site and answer a question before Noon on Friday March 2, 2007 to be in with a chance of winning this perfect addition to your home.
The site provides an up-to-date source of information and has lots of useful features including a search facility, links to related sites, young people’s pages and users can also download a range of publications, forms, documents and leaflets.
The site is accessible to a wide audience and has many interactive functions including large font conversion, a translation service and Browsealoud, a computer program that reads out the words on a website.
Shoreline Administration Officer Julie Thompson, who has redeveloped the website, said:
“Our website is a one-stop-shop where everyone can find out everything they need to know about Shoreline and the services we provide 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
“The site is up-to-date, fast, efficient and user-friendly, meeting the needs and exceeding the expectations of our wide range of customers.
“The website will continue to improve in line with user demand and new technology and we are already planning future enhancements such as the use of video clips and the possibility of online discussion forums.”
“Shoreline is constantly improving the standard and performance of the services we provide our tenants and customers and this is one of the ways in which we are responding to the growing demand for internet based information and services.”
