TIS can support tenants and landlords to develop and implement their tenant participation strategies. TIS produced the Good Practice Framework for Tenant Participation in Scotland funded by Communities Scotland, which is now in an easy to use guide. We have worked with tenants and local authorities and Registered Social Landlords throughout the country to improve participation and involve more tenants. TIS have produced a useful checklist you can use to review how well your tenant participation is working.
TIS have over 20 years experience providing independent advice to tenants in area regeneration, option appraisals and stock transfers. This has seen us work in over 35 different adviser contracts ranging in size from a few 100 tenants to over 35,000.
