Get involved

Taking part in an estate walkabout is a great way for you to help our Neighbourhood Officers understand the needs and priorities of your area.

Our Neighbourhood Officers are out and about in our communities regularly, so why not take the opportunity to chat with them and share your thoughts or ideas. If you aren’t able to catch up with your Neighbourhood Officer while they are in your area, you can still get in touch with them directly to organise a date and time that suits you.

Throughout the year we conduct a variety of consultations and surveys - these are a quick and easy way for you to get involved and share your views. Some examples are:

• Rent Consultation
  Each year we conduct a mandatory Rent Consultation where we seek the views of our tenants on the rent proposals for the new financial year. This is a great way for you to learn about what our plans are for spending on improvements, new services, planned maintenance and what any new proposed rent level may be.
• Repairs satisfaction survey
  You can have a say on our repairs service by completing the text message survey we send to you after your repairs appointment. Your feedback will help us to manage the repairs service more effectively.

The feedback from these surveys really does help us to make improvements and let us know what is working well. Don’t forget you can always let us know your thoughts on anything at anytime by using our online contact form, chat with us via Live Chat, or by sending us a direct message via social media.
