Meet the Team Day and Annual Tenant Conference
Annual Tenant Conference and Meet the Team
This year’s Meet the Team Day and Annual Tenant Conference will take place on *Monday* *7th October,* at *Worksop Town Hall *and all tenants and leaseholders are invited to come along.
This annual event is a wonderful opportunity to meet the different teams that make up our Housing Service, including Housing Officers, Repairs, Tenancy Sustainment and Tenant Engagement, as well as some of our partners who provide specialist services.
The Meet the Team part of the day will take place between 10am and 11.45am in the Assembly Room. You are then invited to stay for the Tenant Conference, which takes place between 12 noon and 1.30pm in the Ceres Suite.
At the Conference you will be able to hear from our Head of Housing, Alison Craig and the Cabinet Member for Housing, Cllr Jonathan Slater, on what has been happening over the past 12 months, plus some updates from guest speakers. Numbers are limited so please reserve your place as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.
Refreshments and lunch will be provided to keep you fueled throughout the event so please advise us of any dietary requirements you may have. There is level access parking available just outside the Town Hall. Please contact the Engagement Team to tell us about any additional requirements you may have.
*Phone*: 01909 533 263.
*Email*: Anita.Fairweather@basselaw.gov.uk or Joshua.booth@bassetlaw.gov.uk.
Annual Tenant Awards
Tenant and Resident Champion
As part of the Tenant Conference, we also like to recognise people and groups for the hard work they do in their communities, and we are asking for your nominations in the category of ‘Community Champions’.
A Community Champion can be:
* Someone who has supported their local community to make a difference for everyone.
* A good neighbour who has gone the extra mile to help someone in need.
* An individual tenant who has been a voice in their local area, assisting others to access information and ensuring all tenants voices are heard irrespective of where they live.
If you would like to make a nomination, please send us a short message telling us what great things the person or group have done and why you believe they should be recognised.
The successful Champions will receive their award and Love2Shop voucher at the Conference on Monday 7th October 2024.

Healthy Neighbourhood Inspections
Healthy Neighbourhood Inspections
Healthy Neighbourhood Inspections help us to look for things that will improve your communities, such as removing graffiti, tackling overgrown gardens and resolving parking issues.
Each area has at least one inspection per year and they are carried out by your Housing Officer. People from other council departments, Nottinghamshire Police and other agencies may also attend, so that specific problems can be addressed.
We want tenants to be part of these inspections, even if it’s just for your street or to raise an individual issue, after all it’s your estate and nobody knows it better than you.
Please join us at one of the inspections that take place in August:
