Council housing

Don't miss your chance to pass on your views about our Housing Services as part of this year's tenant satisfaction survey.

Our specialist market research company, Acuity, will contact a random sample of 522 tenants between 20 November and 16 December.

The survey will only take 8 to 10 minutes to complete and tenants will be called between 9am-8pm on weekdays, or 10am-6pm on Saturdays. If you miss their call, the number will show as 01298 385008.
