Spire Homes tenant, Dave Stuttle
Spire Homes’ tenant, Dave Stuttle has been awarded the
chance to form part of the new National Tenant Council in charge of
influencing government policy and housing practice. 50 Social
Housing tenants were selected from across the UK from a variety of
backgrounds, ages and cultures.
Dave will be at the heart of decision making for homes and
neighbourhoods. It is a chance for tenants to shine, bringing a
creative inspirational initiative to decision making. This step
will enable Government, landlords and tenants to work together on
more equal terms.
Dave said, “This is a golden opportunity for tenants to be
involved in influencing housing policy at a national level. There
are over 8 million tenants who now potentially have a voice and an
opportunity to make their views heard. We have had the first
meeting of the NTC and have made a very good start by responding to
the TSA new regulatory framework”.
John Farrar, Chairman of Spire Homes said “we are very pleased that out of 1400 applicants, Dave was one of 50 chosen to represent tenants’ views across the country. He is very passionate about social housing and we know that he, along with the rest of the group, can make a real difference. We are all extremely proud of him at Spire Homes!”
