We’re making a difference on our estate:
In 2024:
- We persuaded the council to allow all estate residents to apply for free tickets to Brockwell Live festivals. In 2023 some residents were excluded
- We persuaded the council to serve notice on the current, bad, provider of the Yellow Qube. The council finally got vacant possession in December 2024
- Held events around community gardening and growing on Challice Way and Huggins Corner, helping to foster friendships on our estate, improve biodiversity and build community
In 2023:
- We persuaded NHG to install cycle parking and Optivo to give residents access to the cycle parking they had already installed. Having cycle parking really helped these people
- We launched a community composting project.
- We transformed Huggins Corner from a piece of waste ground to a wildflower meadow
- We got substantial service charge refunds for NHG leaseholders
In 2022:
- The vast majority of tenants who complained about damp in 2019 are now happy with the work done to fix it
- We persuaded MTVH to improve the transparency of their service charges
- We got compensation for MTVH residents who suffered from broken lifts
- We got compensation for tenants who were overcharged for water rates
- Our gardening project won the Blooming Lambeth awards
- We persuaded MTVH to treat a rat infestation in Gaywood Close
- We persuaded Optivo to take real action on an ant infestation in Baldwin House
In 2021 we:
- Persuaded MTVH to tackle a pigeon infestation and an unreliable lift in Williams House following a petitioning campaign
- Organised a winter celebration
In 2020 we:
- Persuaded Metropolitan to remove some pointless scaffolding from Gaywood Close
- Persuaded Optivo to send pest control to Baldwin House rather than claiming it was an individual problem.
We’re always looking for new people to help. Please contact us for more details
