Why get involved?
We work with our customers to provide great communities where people live well.
We need to hear from our customers to know how to deliver our services in the best way. We want to know about your experiences and opinions.
By completing a survey, attending a meeting or doing some research for us, you can influence how services are delivered and amended.
Take a look at what customers have done with us recently, and what opportunities we currently have for you to make a change.
Have you heard about our points scheme?
We have a points scheme for customers who get involved. You get points for responding to surveys or attending meetings. For example you get 5 points for answering an online survey and 10 points for attending an online meeting. At the end of every month you’ll get a voucher to spend based on how many points you have. 5 points = £5.

Training and support
We want to make sure you have everything you need to get involved and enjoy it. We offer lots of free training and support for all of our involved customers. We have a dedicated team of involvement officers that provide an induction, one to one support and all the help you need to understand different services we provide.
We can also get another customer to buddy up with you at the start until you learn the ropes. They are more than happy to do this if means more customers get involved.
