Be a Saffron Community Member (SCM)
If you are a tenant or community leader, becoming a Saffron Community Member gives you lots of opportunities to get involved in our work to make a positive difference.
Tenant groups
After becoming a SCM, if you would like to be more involved, you could join one of our two tenant groups:
-
Tenant Scrutiny Group
Our Tenant Scrutiny Group look at our performance, processes, and policies to improve tenant experience and services.
-
Tenant Communication & Support Group
Our Tenant Communication & Support Group guide and influence Saffron’s communications while providing tenant-to-tenant support.
Both groups provide tenant-to-tenant support via Saffron Tenants Facebook page. You can join by clicking here.
Both groups are also involved in ensuring Saffron’s journey towards being tenant centred is achieved, and the groups will be at the forefront of any consultation process.
We have some frequently asked questions which we hope you will find helpful. You can read them below or by clicking here.
If you have any further questions, please email getinvolved@saffronhousing.co.uk or call 01508 532000.
We own two community rooms which are run by volunteer committees.
The rooms are available to hire by the public for one off events or regular activities. They provide a low cost, level access venue in our communities, each with a disabled toilet and hearing loop. The facilities are spacious with free parking and Wi-Fi available. See below to find out more, check availability or to make a booking.
