Showcase Event: 19th September 2009
A showcase event, led by tenants, took place at New Charter Housing Trust in September 2009.
All the usual popular events were available to try, including face painting, rock climbing and entertainment from clowns for the children. The day also included workshops designed to help residents achieve colourful hanging baskets and demonstrations on how to grow your own vegetables. All these workshops were designed and run by residents.
The Tenant Management Team (TMT) held workshops, to explain to tenants and residents what we are all about. We explained what our aims and objectives were and how this would benefit not only tenants, but also to show that working together will benefit all, including New Charter Housing Trust.
As well as being able to show the benefits that TMTs’ work can bring, the workshops also gave TMT the opportunity to promote Resident Involvement with New Charter.
This led to TMT holding information sessions, where we held “informal chats”, for those who showed an interest in getting involved.
From this TMT have welcomed three new members to their team and introduced other prospective tenants who showed an interest in alternative areas of involvement.
Overall the Showcase event was a success. Both the Tenant Participation Team at New Charter together with residents worked very hard to achieve this event. Hats off to all involved.
The Tenant Management Team: “working together to make a difference.”

Staff Induction Training
Staff Induction Training
With the introduction of the Tenant Management Team (TMT) in 2009, members undertook many in-house training session including the Staff Induction training sessions, alongside New Charter employees.
Once formally recognised TMT have since been invited to all staff induction sessions to present our roles to new staff and give an insight into what our aims and objectives as the team.
The first presentation we completed was on 17th Sept 09.
We talk to the new staff members and give a short presentation advising what our involvement means to New Charter, the employees and more importantly, what it means for residents.
These presentations are done by members of TMT, who wish to contribute to the promotion of the team and are done on a rota basis.
We liaise with all members of the training team, at New Charter, to make sure that the presentations are up to date and are run with professionalism.
We are then invited to the lunch, provided by the training team, which allows us to discuss further our future activities and answer any questions from the new employees.
