The review of the resident engagement structures report has been drafted by the independent consultant, Just Housing Group. The recommendations from the review will be shared with TRAs once agreed by the Co-ordinating Committee and will now go to Cabinet on 22 July. Among the recommendations is a stipend to be payed to residents on the Co-ordinating Committee for all the time they put into working with the Council.
In the meantime the resident Task & Finish Group is about to publish its report on the Communal repairs service. There will be an action plan drafted to address their recommendations and progress will be monitored by the Co-ordinating Committee. A copy of the report will be available via the website once published.
We're launching an updated waste and recycling strategy for Lambeth, and we want to know what you think about it.
Managing our waste better and recycling more is important. Every one percent increase in recycling achieved will save the council around £90,000 - money which could be used to fund other services, especially those supporting the most vulnerable in our community.
