If you are a council tenant or a leaseholder, we’d love you to take an active part in shaping the services which impact you.

More information on those services can be found on our tenant involvement page.

Below you can read more about some of the different ways you can get involved. Commitment levels vary, up to a maximum of around two to three hours per month. Where attendance at meetings is involved, we can arrange transport or reimburse travel expenses to and from the location.

If you’d like to get involved, please register your interest here.
