Our residents are at the heart of what we do; during the half-term, our teams held a special community fun day in Walmer, Kent.

On Wednesday, 10 April, our Resident Involvement and Community Development teams partnered to bring joy to the community, hosting fun activities for children and families alongside an estate services review in Deal.

Richard Dowling, Community Development Manager said; “The community fun day was a wonderful day for all who attended, with an activity for everyone to participate in and enjoy. Residents enjoyed the fun games, ice cream as a nice little treat, and a bouncy castle for children. It was an excellent opportunity for the community to come together and share the joy of the half-term break as well as engage with us on issues that help shape further service improvements.”
