Meet our tenant led committee
I have been involed in housing for 15 years and the see the person campaign is very important to me we need to stop the negative view of social housing tenants are real people and there views need to be listen to, tenants are not all lazy and dont want to work, find out about the real person first before you judge them. Join us in stopping the stigma together we are strong.
Lynne is also the tenant representative for Together with Tenants campaign.
This year I celebrated 27 yrs as a Tenant Volunteer in Social housing. I got involved all those years ago because I believed that Tenants are good people and should have a good home with conditions to suit.
I believe in that time I have played a great part in doing just this and looking forward to even greater prospects in years to come.
I joined benefit to Society right from the start because I believe all Tenants suffer from being stigmatised.
I am now vice chair working with some fantastic Tenants on our new group called "See the person".
We are very strong in what we believe and as a Tenant led group we see the future as stopping stigmatisation in Social housing Tenant's lives.
I am on the Elected Committee of the See the Person campaign, with particular focus for contacting politicians to get them to understand that people who live in social housing are valuable members of society. I am passionate about combatting stigma against people who live in social housing as we all have a role to play in our communities and whether we are tenants or owner occupiers should not make any difference.
