An example of how you could help us...

The Resident Engagement Team recently reached out to our Resident Advisory Panel (RAP) to gather their thoughts on the training opportunities provided by South Essex Homes for residents. We received an excellent response, with numerous valuable suggestions, including topics such as IT training, First Aid, learning English, Fire Safety, Recycling, and Health and Nutrition.

In response to this, we have sourced a variety of free online courses for our residents, covering many of these areas. These courses are now accessible through the South Essex Homes webpage: Resident Training | South Essex Homes

Thank you to those that took part in this survey and helped us make these updates!

We recently had a fire in the bin room of one of our high rise blocks, which may have been caused by a lit cigarette or other flammable item such as lithium batteries being disposed of down the bin chute. 

Please be extremely careful when disposing of household waste. Items that could cause a fire such as cigarettes, matches, batteries, especially lithium-ion batteries, must not be put with household waste and never down bin chutes.
