I'm writing to thank you for reporting Southdown Housing Association's recent success in the Sunday Times 100 Best Companies To Work For list (The Argus, March 7).

We were delighted to be ranked number ten in the UK.

However, I was surprised to read we offer free IVF treatment for staff. It's a lovely idea but it's not one which Southdown - a not-for-profit organisation - has the cash to put into action.

Fortunately, we do take care of our staff in many other ways, including offering time off to staff who are moving house or undergoing (independently funded) IVF treatment.
