Training session 8 – Options for resident control

February 12, 2025 @ 13:1516:30

This session explores different options for resident control, ownership and management of their homes and assets.

It covers:

  • what the community is trying to acheive
  • building community support and membership
  • different routes to ownership and management
  • getting the right advice

It also looks at community owned housing associations in the UK and shares the journey of how one such organisation – Walterton & Elgin Community Homes – took control of its homes from the council 30 years ago and where they are now.

Session is open to all social housing residents. Tea and cakes will be the provided and there’ll be lots of opportunity to network and share experiences.

A support person is welcome to attend the training with you if needed. Please just let us know via email when you receive the confirmation.

The venue is wheelchair accessible.
