We want to involve you in decisions that affect your home and your neighbourhood.

Why should I get involved?

We can't improve without your feedback. You can help us identify where we are doing things right and, more importantly, where we are going wrong. You'll be able to:

• help improve your local community
• campaign for changes you'd like to see
• meet your neighbours and other tenants
• develop your own skills, confidence and knowledge.

How can I get involved?

There's lots of different ways you can get involved. We've a range of opportunities so you should find something that suits you. Take a look at the options below or call us on 0131 657 0600 if you'd like to find out more. You can also email customer@castlerockedinvar.co.uk or check our involvement calendar.

Tenants and residents associations

These are local groups that reflect the interests of people who live close to each other. They hold regular meetings to share views, discuss common concerns and find solutions to problems. Ask your housing officer if your area has an association already. If it doesn't, we can help you to set one up.

Interested? Call us on 0131 657 0600 or email customer@castlerockedinvar.co.uk

Local meetings and focus groups

Sometimes we hold one-off meetings to discuss local or national issues such as new government policy that may affect you. Tell us if you're interested in these and we'll make sure you're invited along.
