Resident Associations

Residents’ Associations provide an opportunity for residents to meet with staff and local agencies on a regular basis in order to discuss local issues and the way their homes and neighbourhood are managed.

 

Committee members organise their own meetings on a regular basis, help resolve local issues and often hold social, leisure and fundraising activities.

 

If there are no Resident Associations currently within your local area and if this is something you feel you would like to develop, you may choose to approach your neighbours to seek local interest and advise us, alternatively  we can provide support by informing your neighbours by letter of your interest to set up a group.

 

Further support will be given in the form of a start up fund, i.e. Constituted Residents Associations representing over 100 units may be awarded up to £250.00 annually to help with costs associated with the running of the association or community events.
