Customer Engagement Opportunities

Tenant Committee

What’s involved? Meets 4 times a year. 

Our main committee, which is led by tenants, where you can hear all the updates from CHS, we will discuss policies and strategies that affect tenants and share performance and satisfaction figures. 

Complaints Panel

What’s involved? Meets 4 times a year. 

This Panel reviews complaints to ensure that solutions are fair and just. If requested by a tenant, they would review a stage 2 complaint and they may recommend actions that CHS should take to resolve the complaint. They also monitor trends in complaints and they review CHS’s complaints handling process and policy.

Scrutiny Panel

What’s involved? Usually meets monthly, a mixture of in person and online meetings.

This panel looks at the services that CHS provides to ensure that they are working well for tenants and that they provide value for money. They do in-depth investigations of a service, that often include talking to tenants and comparing CHS with other Housing Associations. They make recommendations to CHS for improvements and report directly to the CHS Board.

In 2023 the Scrutiny Panel reviewed CHS’s damp and mould procedures. Click here to read the full report and click here for a summary.
