X1 Lettings Focus on Tenants Wellbeing 5 Jun 2020

X1 Lettings Acts of Kindness

X1 Lettings have three branches across Liverpool, Manchester & Leeds with over 60 employees who have always been proud of their family culture which has managed to be maintained throughout lockdown.  The team have been helping their residents, local communities, charitable causes and NHS/Key workers in their local areas during this time.

Reducing loneliness and isolation

Throughout lockdown the team at X1 Lettings have maintained constant contact with their residents to ensure they feel connected and reduce the feeling of loneliness and isolation for some.

Paramount Properties are Helping those self-isolating

Jamie Crowther Head of Marketing comments – ” With this is mind we created some new and exciting ways to communicate with our tenants whilst having their physical and mental wellbeing at the forefront of everything we do”.

Fundraising for Liverpool & Manchester Cares Charity

The team have been fundraising for Liverpool & Manchester Cares Charity through#shareyourview campaign.

This was an idea created by the team to share each person’s view whilst on their one hours exercise per day.  The aim was to help those who felt isolated and lonely by sharing different views each day to brighten up their day.
From this they were delighted to have donated a total of £100 for
X1 Lettings
Liverpool Cares & £100 for Manchester Cares!

X1's Cookbook

X1 Lettings
The team wanted to create something fun which their tenants could interact with whilst still helping them during lockdown. They came up with the idea of an X1 Cookbook, compiling all of their go to recipes from quick and easy, vegan trends and the ultimate sweet treats.

They shared their favourite dishes with tenants to help give them meal ideas.  Each week the team took it in turn to show off their cooking skills by sharing their favourite recipes and then turned them into E-recipes to send them out to all of residents each week.

Feedback for the X1 Cookbook was fantastic so they have continued to send recipes for the last seven weeks and now have over 20 recipes in the X1 Cookbook!
Jamie Crowther comments; “It has been great to see our tenants enjoying this idea and actually re-creating the meals themselves and sending us photos of their dishes”.

National Nurses Day

The marketing team wanted to give tenants something that could be used to destress and distract their mind from the current situation.
Since adult colouring books are proven to help reduce anxiety, they thought this would be the perfect opportunity to create their own X1 Colouring Pages.
X1 Lettings Colouring-Pages

With that in mind, they created a combination of colour pages unique to them with X1 Locations and picturesque scenes which is a great way to revisit familiar surroundings which aren’t possible to get to at the moment.

This was another option they were providing their tenants as a new and fun way to relieve any anxiety or simply a new hobby to relax and pass the time.

National Nurses Day

To mark National Nurses Day, they interviewed one of their amazing NHS heros and X1 tenant, Donna for a Q&A blog on the day and the life of a NHS nurse.

We all know what a remarkable job all of our key workers do and especially during COVID-19 but the team wanted to reinforce this even more by giving all of their residents an insight into the amazing work they carry out every single day.

There to chat

1 Lettings

Their marketing department have revised a new strategy simply focusing on constant, clear communication with tenants. They are providing weekly check in calls with their tenants, just a simple friendly chat and catch up to check they are ok, if they need anything and simply just to help them hear a familiar voice as many live alone.

It was from doing their calls that one team member spoke with an NHS nurse who lives in an X1 building. She raised her concerns about the amount her washing was costing due to having to wash her uniform more frequently. Therefore they decided to send her £40 cash via bank transfer to help support her for all her hard work during this period.

Their residents mental health is a big focus in the current situation, the team are focusing their efforts on daily email campaigns with self-care tips such as links to free meditation and free workouts.

Positivity Takeover

X1’s desire to care for and help X1 residents spreads throughout the wider team and not just their marketing department. X1’s Executive PA Rhiannon who has a passion for meditation and overall wellbeing has created an X1 Instagram takeover every Wednesday called ‘Riri’s Positivity Takeover’.

Agents Giving Industry Acts of KindnessEvery Wednesday Rhiannon goes live on X1’s Instagram and Facebook Stories to share her positivity and self care advice for the week. This week was her first one which she discussed the importance of a continued routine for the mind, reassured tenants if they had nobody to talk to to give her a call and provided a at home HIIT session.

After the first week, they saw a spike in interaction from their residents as Rhiannon was live, responding back to her stories communicating about their experiences, thanking her and even asking her to call them for a chat!

 

Shopping for NHS workers

1 LettingsWithin the umbrella company of X1 is X1 Developments. One of their team members Anthony and his family decided to contact his local Tesco’s superstore and pay for 50 bags of essential shopping to be packed up for NHS workers in his local hospital in Liverpool.

Anthony then collected all 50 bags and drove to the local hospital and distributed them amongst the wards, A&E, paramedics and those on the front line. He told us they were so grateful for the Tesco shopping essentials as when they finish their 12+ hour shifts they are too tired to go shopping.

X1’s Block Management Support

X1’s Block Management team decided to help residents who are isolating by collecting their rubbish. All tenants where informed that if they do have symptoms, please just leave their rubbish outside their apartment door and our Block Management teams will collect it on their behalf.

Their onsite Security teams have volunteered to help any residents who are also self isolating and need essentials from the supermarkets to inform security and they will go and collect their essentials for them and leave outside their apartment doors.

 

NHS Clap for our Carers

The team wanted to show their full support and appreciation to the NHS and key workers by creating an X1 Clap for our Carers video. Each team member recorded themselves clapping from their homes and their Content Marketing Manager then collaborated all the footage into one big video which was released on Thursday 26th March at 8pm in line with the National campaign.
