CLOVER RISE RESIDENTS ASSOCIATION

Achievements to Date Addressed concerns of children’s anti-social behaviour Adopted constitution for tenants association and elected officers Attended TPAS conference, and took part in a presentation of TP work at MHA Used a planning meeting to establish activities to be adopted by tenants association Identified need to extend fencing on the scheme. Initially because of the costs involved it would have been scheduled for a later date. Residents therefore asked to undertake the work themselves and MHA to only meet the material costs. This was agreed and the initiative achieved a successful outcome. An outdoor launch event was held in the first summer of the tenant association, all organised by the residents. It included food stalls, activities and games. Special guests were the local councillor and MHA staff. Residents organised activities for the summer holiday for the children by obtaining internal and external funding. Residents organised a jumble sale to raise funds for the association. Residents held a Christmas social event for all the adults on the scheme. A planning day meeting was held for all the residents and the local councillor. An external consultant facilitated the event. An action plan was developed.

Future Activities Continue with the pursuit of the play area.Amend the constitution to include a wider area therefore attracting larger funding. Hold an AGM Link in with the Neighbourhood Action Planning Team to benefit from other initiatives in the locality.
