Useful Contacts
Your Housing Officer
Our Housing Officers work out in our communities and are available to deal with your tenancy related queries such as discussing your housing options or dealing with anti-social behaviour.
They hold regular drop-ins in the local offices and can arrange to meet you outside of these times either in our offices or at your home. To find out when the drop-in is for your local area please contact your Housing Officer directly or call 01323 340018.
