Improving the Community

Our Community Walkabouts is our commitment to improving the quality of our communities and making a positive contribution to the neighbourhood where our customers live. We host a programme twice a year of Community Walkabouts, which involves our team walking around your community and identifying any issues that might need to be tackled.

 

It will give you the chance to meet your locality coordinators and our agency partners where you’ll be able to share your views and ideas on how we can keep your community clean, safe and welcoming to you and your visitors.

If you have ideas on how to improve where you live, please join us on a Community Walkabout, below you will find out when our next community walkabout will be taking place.
