Tenant participation
We are committed to involving tenants and service
users in the development and monitoring of the services they
receive.
Only through their involvement can we provide the kinds of
services our tenants and service users require. We encourage and
enable tenants and other stakeholders to become effectively engaged
and involved and have a demonstrable influence in all areas of
housing and community interest.
Shape Housing Association in partnership with its residents and
service users is currently in the process of developing a tenant
participation strategy and action plan.
These documents will be made available on the website as soon as
they have been agreed by Shape's board of management.

Bath Foyer brings young people together
through football
Shape has been giving its young residents the
unique opportunity to represent their Foyer in a friendly 5-a-side
tournament with other Foyers in the South West.
The team is open to residents of the Bath Foyer and Pathways
projects and any of their friends who wish to play. To date they
have played against the University of Bath at the Sport Training
Village Astroturf pitch. They have also played teams from Bath Spa
University at the Recreation Ground and the leisure centre in
town.
The team received funding from Bath & North East Somerset
Council through their ‘Get Funded’ scheme, and Bath City Football
Club Community Group also sponsored the Bath Foyer kit and
coaching courses for the team.
The aims of the project are to promote greater mutual understanding
and respect among young people from different backgrounds; a
positive life message to other young people and adults living in
the city; improved levels of football skills and team work;
improved quality of life through keep-fit exercises; and a
successful and fun experience for young people.
