We think it is important that all tenants have the opportunity to get involved in and influence the decision making. we offer a number of ways in which you can do this.

Tenants and residents associations

Tenants and residents associations (TRAs) are made up of local volunteers who represent tenants, leaseholders and residents living in their neighbourhoods. They are a vital part of the participation and decision making process.

This is probably the most traditional way of getting involved in your local area. TRAs are formally constituted groups that represent a particular area, perhaps a block, street or whole estate. each group has a committee made up of a chair, vice chair, secretary, treasurer and committee members drawn from the local community.

The association works closely with local residents, Rochdale Boroughwide Housing and Rochdale Council to ensure that residents views in their neighbourhood are fully represented and that tenants are involved in decisions which affect them.

Rochdale Boroughwide Housing provides a wide variety of support to tenants and residents association. if you are interested in setting up a group in your area you can contact the Customer Involvement Team on (01706) 273822 email.
