Customer Opportunities

Have your say, make a difference and get involved

As a Halton Housing customer, there are lots of ways you can get involved and engage. From joining an estate walkabout and getting involved with customer engagement events and customer panels, to having your say on how services are delivered to you and your neighbours. Take a look at our events page to see what is happening in your area.

Engage with us

Every one of our customers is unique, and we know that you may want to engage with us in different ways, depending on your lifestyle and preferences.

Traditional methods of engaging with you (e.g. our Customer Forum, Scrutiny Panel and groups) still play an important role, but we’re also looking at new ways to keep the conversation flowing. 

Even if we can't see you, we still want to stay connected with you – so if that means more open and innovative ways, then we’re up for it!

Customer Forum

Our Customer Forum is a group of approximately 12 customers. It's an opportunity for you to have a say on proposals and offer feedback on our services from a customer perspective including our policies and procedures. It also gives you the opportunity to learn how and why we do things in certain ways. 

Meetings are held bi-monthly and where possible these are face-to-face meetings.  During the Coronavirus pandemic, meetings have been held online. As our customers' needs and circumstances change, we will continue to offer customer meetings online - even after Coronavirus.
