Sheffield Consults On Future of ALMO

Sheffield Council has written to tenants asking for their views on the future of its ALMO. Letters were sent to all 50,100 of Sheffield Homes’ tenants, asking them to choose the neighbours they want to represent them on a new consultation board. The management agreement between the council and the ALMO ends on 30 March 2014. The role of the tenant-led advisory group will be to help the council design a fair consultation process on how housing will be managed after this date. Two representatives from each of the six housing areas will be on the board, as well as two sheltered and two leaseholder representatives. Read more on Inside Housing.
