EMAIL CONTACT

We have recently seen an increased amount of email contact to individuals at SBHA. The best way of getting in contact with us, is using our online forms. This will ensure your request goes to the correct team and a response can be issued within our expected response times.

When individuals are emailed they may not be the best person to respond and there is a possibility that they might be away from the business or out and about visiting other residents. This means your enquiry isn’t responded to as quickly as it could be.
