TPAS Appointed To "Hand Power Back To Tenants"

TPAS has been appointed to deliver the national ‘Tenant Empowerment Programme’ designed to give social tenants support to engage confidently with their landlords.  Housing Minister, Mark Prisk, launched the £1.2m Tenant Training and Support Programme to give residents the advice and training they may need to hold their landlords to account, whether on their own, by setting up a tenant panel, or by taking over the management and maintenance of their homes and neighbourhoods themselves.  The Programme will be led by TPAS in partnership with the National Federation of Tenant Management Organisations, Tenants and Residents Organisations of England, and the Confederation of Cooperative Housing.
