Residents’ Voice – Shaped by Tenants, for Tenants
WHO WE ARE: 'Residents Voice' is a tenant-led scrutiny group in Hounslow, established to ensure residents have a genuine say in how housing services are delivered and improved. We act as a “critical friend”—working alongside housing departments to review policies, performance, and services from a tenant’s perspective.
OUR GOAL: Our goal is simple: to ensure our voice influences the decisions that affect our community. While we do not focus on personal issues, our shared lived experiences across Hounslow enable us to provide honest insights and practical ideas that identify what truly matters to tenants.
OUR SLOGAN: We listen, we challenge, and we work together to recommend positive changes that benefit everyone.
WHAT WE PROMOTE: 'Residents Voice' promotes openness, builds trust, and ensures that residents are not only consulted but actively involved in shaping the future of housing services.
MEMBERSHIP: Membership is open through an application process designed to ensure fair and diverse representation across our communities. Members are required to reapply each year at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) to continue their role, allowing new residents the opportunity to participate.
HOW TO JOIN US: If you are passionate about improving housing services in Hounslow and want to make a difference, we would love to hear from you. Please email your expression of interest to engage@hounslow.gov.uk

Residents Voice Promotion Event
Back in May, we held a promotion event
at Mission Hall in Brentford. It was a
great afternoon where council tenants
and housing staff came together to learn
about what we do – and why it matters.
Our very own Carolyn, Vice-Chair of the
group, kicked things off with a powerful
speech about how Residents Voice came
to be. In a nutshell, we were formed
because Hounslow Council wanted
tenants to have more say and more
power in how council housing is run.
That means more than just filling
out the odd survey – it means
real involvement, with access to
performance data and a direct line to
decision-makers.
We go through the numbers, the
reports, and the feedback, and then we
ask the tough questions. If things aren’t
working as they should, we say so. And
we don’t stop there – we also make
suggestions to help improve the service,
and when needed, we propose changes
to policy.
