Gas Safety Week
Gas Safety Week commencing on 9 September is a timely reminder to make sure that your home is gas safe and free from carbon monoxide poisoning, gas leaks, fires or explosions. We provide a free inspection once a year to check the gas appliances in your home are safe and working efficiently. We’ll write to you with details, please make sure you provide access or let us know if you need to re-arrange to a more convenient date.
Leaseholders in the driving seat!
We regularly hold information sessions for our leaseholders on relevant topics, and our next session aims to put residents in the driving seat by suggesting the theme!
So, if you are a leaseholder please get in touch or call 023 8083 3185 with any queries about the service or issues that you think would be of interest to other homeowners. We will then host a special online session responding to your suggestions and queries.
Lord Mayor celebrates Tenants Association’s milestone!
Members of PRADOS, an active Tenant Association (TA) in St Deny’s, were recently invited to the Mayor’s Parlour to celebrate the organisation’s 20th anniversary. The TA has provided a link between the council and the local community for two decades, helping to keep the neighbourhood well maintained and organising social events and activities to bring residents together.
If you would like to join or establish a TA in your neighbourhood, please contact our Tenant Engagement team to find out more.
