GET INVOLVED!  OUR AIM

OUR AIM
We are committed to putting resident involvement at the heart of everything we do. We want our residents to be involved in important decisions made about their homes and communities and to influence the services we provide. We will support residents to increase their confidence, knowledge, skills and desire to influence our services. Our resident involvement service standards outline our promises to you. Please click here to view them.

WHY GET INVOLVED?
Being involved allows residents to express their needs, views and aspirations about their homes and communities. This information is key to improving the services we offer. We will listen and respond to the information provided by our residents and will show how they have successfully influenced our services. We continually strive to better the services we offer, but can only do this with the help of our residents.

HOW TO GET INVOLVED
We aim to ensure that the opportunities offered for residents to get involved are responsive and relevant to their needs. We understand that our residents get involved for many different reasons, have different levels of interest and have other commitments. We understand that we need to be flexible and, in order to recognise this need, we offer a ‘menu of involvement.’ The menu gives residents many different ways to get involved, from filling in a survey in their own home to becoming a member of the Board. Please click here to view our menu of involvement.

SUPPORT
We will support our residents to get involved. The support we provide varies from training through to the provision of travel and childcare expenses. Please click here to find out more about the support provided by the Resident Involvement Team at Chorley Community Housing.

ARE YOU AGED BETWEEN 8 AND 16 YEARS OF AGE?
Don't sit at home bored and be a couch potato this Summer! Get up on your feet and try a new sport!
You never know you might just enjoy yourself and make new friends. Have a look at the Summer super seven series timetable to see whats on and when in your area.  You might want to test your foot skills with a game of Futsal, which is a fast paced skill orientated football game or find out what skills you can pick up from the Urban Athletics session. Whatever your ability or age the Summer super Seven sports sessions will have something for you. You don't need to book just turn up on the evening of the session. The Urban Athletics session will be held on the grass at the rear of the leisure centre in Copull. We look forward to seeing you over the Summer!

COULD YOU BE A MENTOR?
Chorley Community Housing are currently developing a support package for young people to help them come off benefits and get into work or training. As part of this support package we would like to recruit adults who would be willing to Mentor young people. Do you think you could mentor a young person or mum aged 16-25 living in supported accommodation, or receiving support from our tenancy support service.
