What is a residents' association?
A residents' association is a group of people living in an area who have come together on a voluntary basis to take up local issues.
Why set up a residents' association?
Residents' associations usually come into being because:
- the area needs more facilities,
- residents are dissatisfied with the services they receive,
- people want estate-based social events and outings,
- residents are worried about a particular issue,
- people want to improve community spirit,
- coming together as a group provides one voice, and that voice becomes more powerful,
- they are a way of receiving information and keeping local residents informed of what is going on locally
- they can work with other local groups for mutual benefit.
