Why should I get involved?
We want to talk to our residents to gauge ideas and opinions as to how we can improve our services in a way that is most suitable. Our residents feed back on many aspects of Two Castles’ work and find getting involved in future plans very interesting.
Two Castles Housing Association also offers training for residents who want to get involved in longer term projects, training that can be added to a CV or undertaken just for fun. Getting involved is a fantastic way to meet other residents and make new friends!
Who is allowed to take part?
Any Two Castles resident can get involved. We want to hear from everyone - from residents with particular religions or beliefs to young people, to those with disabilities and those with different sexual orientations. This is so that we can check that our services are the best that they can be for everyone.
How can I get involved?
There are lots of different ways which we hope will offering a solution to suit everyone.
Will I get paid?
As well as rents from our properties, Two Castles Housing Association has charitable status and receives grants from the Government. We aspire to get the best value for money for both our residents and the taxpayer so therefore resident involvement is voluntary and we are not currently able to offer payment.
However, we will reimburse all reasonable out of pocket expenses (such as travel, food and phone calls) which residents have as a result of taking part in our involvement activity.
How long do I have to stay involved for?
There are lots of ways that our residents can get involved without it taking up a lot of time.
