As part of East Devon District Council's (EDDC) commitment to boosting tenant satisfaction, lots of opportunities are being provided for tenants to be actively involved in its housing service.
EDDC's Community Development team have organised and delivered a range of programmes and events to improve tenants’ experience. The team have been busy arranging training to help volunteers to question, scrutinise, and monitor the actions and performance of the council and to reflect the wishes of residents.
Recent training sessions have included topics such as the role of the Housing Ombudsman, an introduction to the Key Performance Indicators Dashboard, and the results of the Tenant Satisfaction Measures.
