This is a great opportunity for a group of residents from different types of homes, geographical areas and diverse groups of people to be involved in the 100 strong panel to advise the ombudsman and shape their work.
Residents will not be involved in the review of individual compliants (phew!).
Residents will be involved in their thematic advisory reporting, shaping their annual work plan and their 3 yearly strategy.
Here is the link to the application form and links to more information on the site:
https://www.housing-ombudsman.org.uk/residents/resident-panel/
The closing date is 25 February 2021.
To be eligible, your landlord must be a member of the Housing Ombudsman Scheme. If you’re not sure you can check here.
The Ombudsman is keen to refresh the membership regularly.
A provisional date has been set for the first virtual meeting of 23 March 2021.
There is no payment for taking part in our Resident Panel.
