Online training session 8 – Options for resident control

Part of a series of 8x training sessions to help social housing residents understand their rights, how to stand up for them, and how to get better treatment and services from landlords.

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

It covers:

• what the community is trying to achieve
• 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. Closed captions will be enabled.

(This session was originally planned for 17th September but has been changed to 1st October)
