Project updates

We have completed a number of involvement projects and have produced reports with information on consultations, feedback and recommendations. Visit our Resident Involvement Library to read these reports

Design Guide 

In May 2022 residents attend an online workshop. They discussed research from across our consultations and feedback from the Specialist Advisory Panels, to inform the Group on the minimum standards required for new homes and neighbourhoods.

The recommendations are now being considered by the project team.

The Design Guide will be created this summer and the recommendations able to be taken forward will be announced in the autumn.

Sustainability Involvement

• In May 2021 residents helped the Group develop the Environmental and Sustainability Strategy
