Supporting tenants voices in merger, partnership and shared service debate

Supporting tenants voices ...

We are hearing a lot about mergers right now!

The Shared Ventures team are working together with Tpas to ensure that tenants of social landlords and other community stakeholders, are aware of all the opportunities that are available to housing organisations striving for better efficiencies.

Mergers are not the only option

There are a number of other shared service arrangements that could be entered into including:

• ·      Cost sharing groups where housing providers collaborate together to provide themselves with shared services
• ·        Joint ventures and strategic alliances
• ·        Co-located services between housing and other public sector services eg the health service, DWP and others

Take part confidently

We want to ensure that tenants are able to take part confidently in discussions about how social housing will be delivered in the future – whether it’s merging, sharing or co-locating services - to ensure that the way landlords deliver services are efficient and offer real value for money.

Shared Ventures are working in partnership with Tpas

to help tenants demystify the range of different ways of delivering services and how by working in partnership with residents, landlords can bring greater value to businesses, communities and the individuals involved.
