Housing Officers inspect council housing estates every year to look at what improvements are needed.
The inspections are carried out with council tenants, leaseholders, residents and councillors.
Any improvements that we identify are put into action plans. Our Housing Officers work with a tenant representative for their area to meet the objectives of the action plan.
Our next round of inspections start in April 2023. You can find details of the locations and times below.
