Tenants may wish to form a tenants’ association or residents’ group to represent the views of tenants. If you would like to set up a local residents’ group or tenants’ association we will offer advice and assistance.

Ark Housing encourages the formation of tenant organisations because they represent the views of tenants to the Association as well as representing the views of tenants to other agencies and organising various social activities within their areas.

The Association will consult with any Tenants’ Association. However the only restraints the Association would place on recognition of tenant groups are that ALL tenants are permitted to take part and that, once established the group operates within its own rules ie. its approved constitution.

Further details and advice about Tenants’ Associations are available by contacting the office.
