On Wednesday 14 May we held our third Community Voice at the Pavillion on Ubberley Road between 6:30pm and 8:30pm.
Six tenants joined EPIC staff, including chair of the Board Simon Wilson and CEO Tracey Johnson. It was a great opportunity for tenants to share their experience of EPIC and where improvements could be made. The session was used to kickstart our consultation on an updated Allocations Policy – more of which will be shared soon – and to learn more about the complaints we received in the previous 12 months and the resulting changes that were made. We also shared an overview of achievements from 2024-25 as well as plans and projects for 2025-26.
Tenants who attended also had the opportunity to talk to us about developments in their local area – issues raised included repairs enquiries and parking issues. Overall, there was a really positive vibe to the meeting and tenants were generally content with the services provided by EPIC. The ‘chippy tea’ went down well too!
It was great to be able to have an informal conversation with those present and discuss other ways to get involved and shape decisions that matter to tenants. If you’d like to know more, please contact Mark Bourne at m.bourne@epichousing.co.uk
Our next Community Voice session will be held on Saturday 16 August, between 10am and 12pm, at our community venue on Burgundy Grove in Meir. More details will be available closer to the event, and we can provide transport as usual if needed.
