Kensington and Chelsea TMO

Kensington and Chelsea TMO is the largest Tenant management organisation in England, running nearly 10,000 properties on behalf of the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea - the entire council housing stock.

The TMO was set up on 1 April 1996[1] under the UK Government's 'Right to Manage' regulations.[2] Kensington and Chelsea TMO is the largest TMO in the UK[3] and is unique in being both the only TMO that runs the entire housing stock for the local council but also in being the only TMO that is also an ALMO.[4]

Recognition and Accolade

Kensington and Chelsea TMO has a national profile within the housing sector and has received a three-star status from the Audit Commission. This was further acknowledged in 2008 when Juliet Rawlings, Chair of the TMO's Board since 1993, was awarded an MBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours for her work with the organisation.[5]
