Building Safety Resident Engagement Strategy Consultation

Overview

We are working in partnership with residents to develop Building Safety Resident Engagement Strategies for each of our high-rise buildings.

Following tragic events such as the 2017 Grenfell Fire and reforms such as the Building Safety Act 2022, it is now a statutory requirement for a tenant and leaseholder engagement strategy to be produced for each high-rise building.

The key purpose of this strategy will be for tenants and leaseholders like you to be encouraged to get involved in the making of building safety decisions. The strategy will need to set out:

• what information will be provided to you
• what decisions you will be consulted on
• how your views will be taken into account
• how the appropriateness of consultation undertaken will be measured

Why your views matter

It is really important that we have the views of a wide range of residents living in the block to ensure the strategies are meaningful.

If you do not understand English very well, please let us know what language(s) you speak or read, and we will make every effort to assist you.

If you require a plain text (MS Word) version of the strategy, please contact us on 0121 569 6148

In line with the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) 2018. We will ensure all the information you provide is stored securely, following the seven key principles of GDPR.  For further information please visit our privacy notice page at http://www.sandwell.gov.uk/privacynotices
