The RMO has decided the extend the deadline for the above survey.

The deadline is now Friday 1^st March 2024, with the results being presented at the RMO General meeting planned for Tuesday 26^th March 2024 and in future editions of our newsletter.

We have decided to extend the survey so we are able to capture as many responses as possible covering the wide range of services we provide. 

The feedback will help us review our existing practices and make any necessary improvements identified.  The results will also enable us to compare the results captured within the same survey in 2022/23.

Blenheim Gardens RMO is working in Partnership with Repowering London on considering options for decarbonising properties and the estate.

We are working together to explore options for retrofit on the estate.  By retrofit we mean renovating and upgrading homes so that they need less energy to heat and stay warm, which means cheaper energy bills, greater comfort, and lower carbon emissions.

To understand your view, we have developed the following survey for your completion;

Blenheim Gardens RMO have arranged a residents meeting with Cllrs and the members of the LTN team.

This will be a residents / local business meeting hosted in the Community Hub, 23 Prague Place, only and will unfortunately not be aired online due to the challenges this will present such a meeting.

The meeting will be taking place on Wednesday 29^th November 2023 @ 6:30PM.

It has been a real challenge getting to this point and so we need to ensure good attendance, whatever your views are on the LTN.

We hope you’re able to attend the meeting!

We would like to share with you a link to Lambeth Council that highlights a range of different support that is available to tenants within Lambeth. There is energy saving advice, food vouchers, support with homelessness and much more!
