1 Owner: Ewan Moar Last Review Date: January 2013 Next Review Date: June 2014 RESIDENT INVOLVEMENT STRATEGY AND ACTION PLAN Newlon is committed to ensuring that residents needs and views are at the heart of service improvement. Newlon provides a wide range of effective opportunities for residents to scrutinise and shape the services it provides in order to achieve this. This is known as Co-regulation. This is mainly for good business reasons so that services reflect residents needs and preferences, are continuously improving and become better value for money. It is also to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements, of which Co-regulation is a key element, and match good practice. This Strategy sets out the objectives for resident involvement and how they will be achieved. There is also a Resident Policy which complements this Strategy and which gives guidance to staff about the opportunities currently provided. Between them, these provide a statement on Resident. This strategy is in line with Newlon s Business Plan which has 4 main business objectives: 1. To expand the number of high quality homes we provide 2. To improve the quality of services provided to our residents 3. To be an efficient and effective organisation 4. To develop successful partnerships with external stakeholders. How Newlon will work towards achieving these objectives is set out in the specific actions within the Business Plan. Resident feedback has been used as the basis for the direction and detail of the Plan. In turn the Business Plan provides the guidance and structure for individual departments to set their own action plans. The Resident Strategy is designed to provide effective opportunities for residents to help achieve the aims and objectives of Newlon. An annual action plan is attached to the strategy as appendix A. This contains specific actions to develop and improve the service during the current year. These actions will be regularly monitored and reported on to ensure they are implemented. The main objectives of the strategy are to: Page 1 of 8
2 1. Improve services to residents or make them more effective, using residents views, feedback and ; and improve customer satisfaction 2. Provide residents with a wide range of opportunities to allow residents the ability to participate at the level and using the method that they prefer; so as to express their views and help shape service design and delivery 3. Enhance scrutiny of Newlon s performance through Resident 4. Ensure opportunities are accessible to all residents, take account of diverse needs, and work to encourage under-represented sections of the community; 5. Provide training and support to ensure that actively involved residents can be effective and become empowered 6. Ensure the approach taken provides good value for money 7. Improve the effectiveness of activities 8. Provide good quality information and feedback about services provided by Newlon and its partners, that is accessible and easily understood Achieving the objectives 1. Resources The strategy for resident involvement cannot be achieved without adequate resources. A budget for this is set annually and currently it covers the following: A Senior Resident, managed by the Quality Team Manager and the Resident, managed by the Housing Contracts Manager; who are dedicated to facilitating and improving Resident. Resident involvement activity is routinely undertaken by resident facing staff such as Housing Management s (HMOs) and is expected to be an aspect of all staff s work where appropriate from the Chief Executive down A budget for support, grants, training and admin costs for formally involved residents Budget for events and local Fundays Budget for publicity for resident involvement. 2. Diversity It is important that opportunities for involvement and participation are open to all residents. Barriers preventing groups of residents becoming involved should be identified and addressed appropriately. Newlon will also aim to identify any particular groups of residents who are over or under-represented in formal involvement activities and work to improve this. Where a specific need is identified, then consideration will be given to setting up targeted consultation and involvement arrangements. This could, for example, apply to Page 2 of 8
3 a certain ethnic group, age group such as young people or those with a particular disability. 3. Developing a good range of opportunities Existing ways for residents to get involved are outlined in the Resident Policy and the Resident leaflet. These opportunities, often referred to as the Menu of, have been developed in consultation with residents and can be added to as and when the need arises. A range of activities are offered that suit differing levels of commitment and style. Some are formal and require considerable commitment, and others are simply about expressing a one-off view on a service. Opportunities include: in Newlon s governance arrangements there are two places on the Board for resident members Membership of resident bodies for consultation and scrutiny such as the Residents Forum and the Scrutiny Panel Membership of local groups or attending local meetings Expressing views on services through surveys, focus groups, the Consumer Panel, by making a complaint and at meetings Mystery shopping Participating in Service Reviews 4. Publicity Publicity takes place in various ways, through: the newsletter the website To residents at fun Days and events leaflets for new and existing tenants surveys information packs for tenants It is also important for staff throughout the organisation to take ownership of this and ensure Residents is embedded in their work. For example, by making sure that residents are asked about their experience of the service and their preferences for future services; and by staff being aware of opportunities for involvement and encouraging residents to take part. To help facilitate this, briefings on involvement will be provided periodically by the Quality Team. 5. Capacity building and empowerment Advice, support and training is made available to formally involved residents such as Mystery Shoppers, Residents Associations, The Residents Forum, Resident Board Members and the Scrutiny Panel. As mentioned above, there are resources available within the budget for this. Training or briefings for specific activities is also available when required; for example when residents are involved in contract tendering. Capacity building can lead to skills and experience that can help people to gain employment as well as influence their housing services and other areas of their. Page 3 of 8
4 Therefore opportunities for training will be also be made known to residents wishing to get more involved. Specific education and training courses are also available from Newlon Fusion which manages Newlon s community regeneration programmes. Opportunities to network with other housing providers and other residents groups should also be considered. 6. Value for money Newlon is committed to ensuring that all its services provide good value for money, so that the best use is made of limited resources. For resident involvement this means making sure that an appropriate amount of money is spent on activity that leads to real change and improvement. Costs and satisfaction with Resident are benchmarked against other housing providers through Housing Quality Network (HQN). The results from which are provided annually in the Resident Impact Assessment. 7. Setting standards Customer service standards and specific Local Offers have been developed in consultation with residents. Estate agreements have also been set showing the levels of service to be expected, the details of the service providers, what residents should expect from Newlon and what Newlon expects from its residents. Standards will continue to be developed and reviewed with residents, as and when appropriate. Resident services operate by the same customer care standards as those for the whole organisation. 8. Performance management making sure objectives are achieved Resident involvement is continually monitored to: Ensure we are adopting the latest good practice; Evaluate performance against plans and targets. Allow residents to comment on our performance and the things they want to see improved or changed; 9. Impact assessment Newlon assesses Resident annually to see how effective the service has been in comparison with its aims and objectives, and that it is accessible and good value for money. The aim is to be able to demonstrate the impact that activities have had on improving Newlon s services for residents. The Assessment will be reported and made available to residents, the Board, and staff. 10. Existing policies This Strategy and the related Policy and Procedure document should be considered as Newlon s Statement on Resident and should be considered alongside the Impact Assessment. 17 Targets Resident activities will work towards helping Newlon achieve the agreed Key Performance Indicator targets. Page 4 of 8
5 It will also work toward increasing resident satisfaction (as measured using Status surveys, routine surveys such as the New Lettings Survey and one-offs) in such areas as: the overall service from Newlon residents satisfaction that their views are being taken into account the repairs service Page 5 of 8
