Branded OneWiFi, the service will be outsourced totally to Candengo who are dealing with the infrastructure installation, day to day monitoring, legal compliance and support issues.

Here’s what One Housing Group has to say on the WiFi scheme in their press release:
One Housing Group has today announced it is launching a free Wi-Fi service to help residents improve their social mobility.
The London-based group will provide the service at its Chalk Farm head office and selected supported housing schemes.
The programme, called ‘OneWiFi’, will allow its customers to access free Wi-Fi starting with 15 schemes coming online this financial year. Next year will see the service rolled out to an additional 40 accommodation-based schemes.
Alan Newson, Head of Technical Service at One Housing Group, said: “Free Wi-Fi in our One Support schemes will allow customers to feel more socially included. The security settings are ‘child friendly’ so customers can use the hotspots in a safe and responsible way.”
Martin D’Mello, Assistant Director Housing Services at One Housing Group, added: “Customers will be able to connect with family and friends via email and other social networks, access jobs, training and employment opportunities through OneWiFi. It will be a fantastic added benefit for our customers.”
The WiFi will be delivered through an ADSL connection and is accessed with a user ID and password which can be requested from the reception staff or One Support scheme managers.
