Local groups and societies

It’s easy to get involved, and have your say about what goes on in your local community. You could join a tenants’ and residents’ group or community forum, or get involved in the work we do, by becoming a Board member or joining a Local Management Committee.

There are also groups set up to highlight issues specifically affecting older or younger people.

If you would like to know more about groups and activities in your local community, contact the Tenant Involvement Officer for your area or visit your local SAP.
