Would you like to receive information or get involved in influencing decisions about your home and neighbourhood, the housing service you receive from us or our housing policies?
We appreciate that some of our tenants have other commitments and have tried to provide a range of ways for tenants to tell us what they think.
Our Interested Tenants Register is a list of tenants who have provided us with their contact details and told us about which areas of the housing service that they are interested in.
For example:
-
Neighbourhood Agreements
-
Antisocial behaviour services

Capital works (kitchens, bathrooms, roofing)
