What is a Community Impact Day?

Officers from all over the council will come together to carry out surveys with our council tenants. This is a great opportunity for our tenants to have their say and for us to gain an insight as to what we are doing well, but also identify areas where we could improve.

As well as information gathering, we will be providing a skip at each of the venues and will be allowing anyone from the surrounding areas to dispose of unwanted items free of charge (domestic waste only – no tyres, oil, paint, asbestos, or fridge freezers and you must be able to put the items in the skip yourself as staff will not be able to assist with lifting items into the skip and we will not provide additional skips once the original skip is filled).

Wates, our contractor for housing repairs and maintenance, will be there to talk about repairs issues with our council tenants.

We are a council that is committed to creating a clean environment for all our residents and we are thrilled to provide an opportunity for the community to dispose of items they no longer want or need in a safe way.

Look out for the FREE skip at these events where you can:

• Speak to our officers about any issues you may have or give us feedback on waste collections or facilities.

If you are interested in becoming an involved tenant, please contact us at tenantvoice@westlancs.gov.uk 

Tenant feedback and influence is really important to us at WLBC. We really do hope to see you at one of our upcoming events and will be announcing our Community Impact dates for next year very soon so please check back here for these updates. If you require any further information, would like to get involved, or would like to suggest your area for one of our next impact days please email TenantVoice@westlancs.gov.uk
