Many of the improvements you see today started as tenant suggestions. If you’ve spotted something that could be better, tell us β€” the Scrutiny Panel could take it forward

Hey everyone β€” just a quick heads up that today’s drop-in digital support session at Riverside Library won’t be going ahead due to unexpected circumstances.
We’ll be back as usual next Thursday, 19th February. Hope to see you then!

The Tenant Scrutiny Panel turns tenant feedback into real change. After reviewing support for new tenants, their recommendations have led to meaningful improvements that help residents settle in. See what’s changed:

There’s no single way to get involved β€” and no set level of commitment.
You can share your views in person or online, get involved regularly or just now and then.
Tell us what you’re interested in, and we’ll help find an opportunity that works for you.

We had a wonderful time celebrating TPAS Involvement Week with some of our amazing tenants over lunch!
These are just a few of the dedicated tenants who give up their time to support tenant engagement, to help shape services and strengthen communities.
