Oakray work in partnership with clients to enhance not only individual or communal property performance, but also to enhance community facilities. A current example of this can be seen at a sheltered housing scheme in West London. Located at the centre of a large housing estate which has struggled with social issues, the lives of residents was becoming difficult. The housing scheme had an outdated warden call system which had reached the end of its life, and was no longer fit for purpose. Over time the residents had grown more concerned about security and their safety. Working with the client Oakray designed a specific ‘state of the art’ warden call system with new and additional functionality, reliability, and connectivity. Combining these upgrades provided a renewed peace of mind for residents and the wider community.
