Get involved. Shape Progress.
Our tenant representatives are valued members of our organisation, and we rely on them to let us know what’s important to their communities.
They help us drive good decision-making right at the heart of the organisation and tell us how we can make things better.
Our committee members are inspirational tenants who are friendly, approachable, and good communicators with excellent knowledge of their local community.
What does a tenant representative committee member do?
They work closely with our tenants, board and colleagues to:
- Help us learn about our services and your community, highlighting what issues affect people
- Advise us on how we might develop or improve services relevant to you and your community
- Check our performance and how well we deliver our services to our tenants
- Check our complaints process and how well we learn from feedback to drive improvement.
