Residents Groups
 

There are currently established tenant groups in Barnwood, The Lampreys, Tredworth North, Tredworth South, Podsmead, Kingsholm, Westgate, and Matson and Robinswood. In addition, each sheltered home has a residents committee. The groups in Kingsholm and Westgate have formed Tenant Consultative Committees to enable them to have a more formal say in the management of their estates. 

 

If you would like to join a group or to set up a group in your area, please contact us|. We can help groups get started and offer some funding to cover essential running costs. 

 

There are a growing number of residents groups operating in Gloucester and we encourage and support them in a variety of ways. The current groups are:

Our service standards

 We will: 

• encourage residents groups where customers want to come together to discuss our services
• in partnership with Gloucester City Council and others, enable resident groups to participate in Neighbourhood Partnerships to comment on services provided by members of the Gloucester Partnership (a partnership of statutory and voluntary agencies, community groups and businesses providing a wide variety of services to the people of Gloucester. (See www.gloucesterpartnership.org.uk/)
• work in partnership with the police and others, to enable resident groups to also become Neighbourhood Watch organisations and help reduce crime and the fear of crime in their neighbourhoods
• provide you with training and support information; and pay reasonable expenses for any travelling and / or childcare where applicable
• identify areas where no tenant group exists and target support in those areas
• encourage under-represented groups of the community to get involved
• attend, at their request, the meetings of tenants and resident groups
• contact the group 14-21 days before the meeting to identify issues and get relevant partners to attend
• contact the group 2-3 days before the meeting to identify any issues so that we can give responses at the meeting
