We are proud to be a tenant-led organisation, meaning our tenants are at the heart of everything we do.

We actively encourage all tenants to get involved with us and have your say on how we do things. There are lots of ways to have your voice heard and many opportunities for tenants to influence our services.

We are proud to be an adopter of the National Housing Federations 'Together with Tenants Charter', setting out our clear commitment to strengthen our relationship with tenants, creating ones based on openness, honesty and transparency.

We have a strategy that sets out our commitment to engage with our tenants and residents, whilst setting out our priority areas, which are:

  • Amplifying the Tenant Voice – increased influence and accountability.
  • Accessible Engagement – supporting tenants to engage.
  • Tenant-Led Activities – to influence and scrutinise strategies, policies and services.
  • Keeping you informed about things that matter the most to you.

Our tenant involvement opportunities provide you with an easy way to influence the way we do things, both in your home and community. They also provide you with free access to lots of different activities and events. By getting involved you can improve your skills, meet new people, and really make your voice heard.

Our opportunities to Get Involved

We have a range of groups who meet in person to review our performance and make recommendations about how performance might be improved. We know how important it is for tenants to see change when something isn’t right, so we make sure that any feedback we get is listened to and acted upon where possible.
