Residents' associations
These organisations are usually set up when local people get together to sort out problems or issues that are relevant to the estate or area in which they live. They work with us to improve the way we deliver services on our estates. Some residents’ associations have also been developed from Neighbourhood Watch schemes. We encourage all tenants to join their local residents’ association.
There are currently 30 residents’ associations registered within Derwentside.
If you would like more information on how to set up a residents’ association, or would like to go to the tenants’ forum, please contact Susan Gowland, our Community Investment Manager, on 01207 524284 or by email.
