Walk About Wednesday’s
The Tenant Voice and Engagement Team will be getting out and about across the borough. We will be visiting our housing estates getting to know our tenants and residents and taking the opportunity to tell them about our team and the work we do.

The walkabouts will take place on the second Wednesday of the month from March until September between 1pm and 3pm.
