Meet your local Housing Officer and other residents to look around your estate together to identify any issues or improvements needed.

Cllr Paula Maines, Cabinet Member for Housing, said:  “Estate walkabouts are a fantastic way for Housing Officers and residents to meet up to look around a local area to see what’s working well and identify any issues or improvements that might be needed.  I hope as many people as possible take the opportunity to join a walkabout, and I’d urge anyone who isn’t available on the day to get in touch with their local housing team if they have ideas or insight to share with us.’

Join a walkabout

No need to book, just turn up at the meeting point on the day.  

If you have any questions, or to request a walkabout in a different area, please contact your local housing team.
