A diverse group of council tenants in Surrey engage in a discussion about housing strategy.

Guildford Borough Council is inviting tenants to provide feedback on its new Housing Diverse Needs Strategy, aiming to ensure housing services are fair, safe, accessible, and responsive.

Council tenants across Surrey are being asked to share their views on the draft Housing Diverse Needs Strategy. The consultation period runs from Monday 12 October to Sunday 25 October. The strategy's objective is to guarantee that housing services are equitable, secure, easily accessible, and cater to the specific requirements of all residents living in council-owned properties.
Residents can contribute their opinions on the strategy's clarity, accessibility, and effectiveness by completing a brief online survey. Alternatively, they can engage in person at several outreach events scheduled throughout the county. The feedback gathered will be instrumental in identifying successful aspects, pinpointing potential obstacles, and enhancing housing services for all.
In-person engagement events will be held at various locations:
- Town centre: outside Guildhall, Thursday 15 October, 10am to 2pm
- Ash: Ash Centre, Friday 16 October, 9am to 12noon
- Send: outside Morrisons Daily, Monday 19 October, 10am to 1pm
- Park Barn: The Hive, Tuesday 20 October, 10am to 2pm
