Community Investment

We are delivering a programme of Community Involvement events and activities to re-engage, re-connect and support customers to thrive

 

Information on the re-launch of activities at our Community Centres

 

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic and social distancing rules, we paused our Resident Engagement activities that had been held in our Community Centres, which from Spring 2023, will be re-opening now that restrictions have lifted. We will be hosting resident meetings across our properties from February 2023. Residents will be written to in advance once the venue, date and time has been booked with details published here.

 

We are working with our partner, the Housing Association and Community Trust (HACT) to re-engage, re-connect and support customers to thrive by enhancing our community engagement and investment activities. To achieve this, we are delivering a programme of community engagement events and activities that will support customers with access to education and training or to learn a new skill at the following centres:

 

Huddlestone Community Centre

Huddlestone Close,

Parmiter Street,

London, E2 9NR

 

Holmsdale Community Centre

Constant House,
