Have your say:

We’re grateful to the many customers who already do so much to help us understand the things SCHA can do to make a difference in their lives.  If you’d like to join them, there are lots of ways you can get involved:

  • Look out for our newsletters: we send out regular newsletters that provide updates and what’s going on at SCHA and explain how you can get involved.
  • At our Extra Care services Phoenix House and Trinity Apartments, Residents’ Meetings are held regularly, offering residents the opportunity to meet, discuss and act on local issues. Your Scheme Manager can give you information on this.
  • Tell us your views on the services you’ve had from us – good or bad, by contacting us.
  • Take part in focus groups or surveys. From time to time we invite customers to be part of a focus group, or to take part in a survey.  It’s entirely up to you whether you participate, but we listen carefully to all the responses we get and use them to make decisions about our work.
  • Become a Community Voice. These customers serve as a local link to SCHA for their area and a representative for their neighbours.  Let us know if you would like to be a Community Voice.
  • Our Residents’ Scrutiny Panel is a group of volunteer residents from across a group of local housing associations, set up to scrutinise services to residents, to make recommendations for improvement and to act as a source of assurance. The panel choose services that they feel are in need of a review and meets on a monthly basis to plan and share tasks and progress. When a topic is under review, it is looked at in the following ways:
  • Everyone is welcome and encouraged to join our Residents’ Scrutiny Panel: please speak to a scheme manager, or one of our panel members – we look forward to seeing you on the panel soon!
