My account Home My community Have your say Help improve services Help improve services Share your views, get involved in community networks and have your say on services locally, regionally and nationally. You don’t need any previous experience to get involved, just enthusiasm and a desire to improve our services and make a difference. Getting involved is also a great way to meet new people, gain valuable volunteering experiencing and boost your work-related skills. Training for volunteers When you volunteer as an involved resident, we’ll pay all reasonable expenses and support you all the way. This includes a range of optional online, one-to-one or group courses.

How residents improved our antisocial behaviour information In 2019, we improved the antisocial behaviour information on our website after our service improvement group looked at how people find information and report problems. By working with Clarion’s digital team, they investigated how people think, feel and behave when they’re worried about antisocial behaviour. The improvements made our advice clearer and led to the creation of a new reporting form. We followed this up with a social media campaign that highlighted the different types of support and advice we can provide. If you have a voice, you should use it. Residents know we’re here for them. It’s giving them a voice – that’s what I get out of it. SteveClarion resident Find out more about Steve’s story If you have a voice, you should use it. Residents know we’re here for them.

Niominational ambassador Meet Niomi – national ambassador “My journey really started when I found myself pregnant at 18. After some time living in a hostel, I managed to secure my first tenancy when my son was five months old. “My mind has always been focused on helping improve the lives of young people, so I did community volunteering placements for various youth programmes. “As a national ambassador, we were given an opportunity to help create more positive relationships between older and younger residents. By sharing our stories and views, we were able to help shift the perception of young people. “Coming out the other side, being a national ambassador helped me better understand my purpose and decide exactly what I wanted to do while supporting others.” Find out more about Niomi’s story Residents' Annual Report Discover the latest edition of our residents' report.
