Tenants and Leaseholders Survey
Brighton & Hove council tenant and leaseholder engagement is about residents working with the council to influence decisions about their homes and estates. It plays a vital role in ensuring the council understands the experience of residents living on estates and in council housing and helps improve and develop the quality of services, the local environment, and the standard of homes.
We hope this survey will reach a wide group of tenants and leaseholders so we can get some in-depth views, experiences and ideas. This will enable us to work together to improve the quality of your homes and develop council housing services. Please complete our survey to let us know what it’s like to be a tenant or leaseholder with Brighton and Hove City Council by following this link:
