Tenant Participation
Tenant participation is a gateway for tenants, residents, and community groups to work together, with their landlords, to have their say and influence decisions about the housing services that they receive.
It is about tenants taking part in decision-making processes and influencing decisions about housing policies; housing conditions; and housing services. It is a two-way process which involves the sharing of information, ideas, and knowledge. Its aim is to improve the standard of housing conditions and services. The right to participate comes from a reasonable expectation that housing services and policies should meet the tenant’s needs and preferences, as far as possible, within available resources.
