Resident involvement
Join us and make a real difference
Our residents are at the heart of what we do at emh, and involving you helps us to improve and adapt the services we offer. Our approach to resident engagement ensures that we:
- Consult with residents, listen to their views and act on them
- Give residents the opportunity to influence policies, strategy, procedures and services
- Ensure all our residents have equal access to get involved.
Involving and being accountable to residents helps to build trust in emh as a landlord, and means residents are engaged with us and the work we do. Other benefits to emh include:
- Its's good for our business; studies have shown that there is a correlation between involving residents and improving performance
Reduced costs with service improvements - A social return to local benefiting communities
- Compliance with the Regulator's consumer standards by enabling and empowering residents the opportunity to shape our service, scrutinise the services we deliver, monitor our performance and ensure we carry out improvements where we need to.
