Training and courses
If you do not feel ready to become involved, we have many courses available. These can boost your confidence and give you the skills you need. Check out our training to see if there is a course for you.
Estate inspections and walkabouts
Estate inspections and walkabouts give our tenants a chance to accompany housing and other staff walking around their estate, identifying problems, and monitoring the service.
The inspections and walkabouts are an important tool in ensuring estates are well maintained and identifying improvements tenants and leaseholders want to see.
Find out more about estate inspections and walkabouts.

The diversity calendar has information on national, international, United Nations (UN), faith, and fun days. It might help you decide when to hold an event. It is produced by our Tenant Engagement team.
