Redland Park Community Walk around

Victor da Cunha
Louise Swain
I have a very good walk around Redland Park on Thursday Last Week with Curo Housing Chief Executive Victor da Cunha and Louise Swain Executive Director for Customer Services and two representatives of the Redland Park community Deborah and Marg.

The visit was a eye opener for the Curo Boss and led to quite a discussion of the maintenance of the estate and future improvements that can be made.

It was agreed at the end of the visit to see what can be achieved by setting up a community forum with residents to discuss the estate and what needs to be done and how it is tackled.

The forum will include residents Curo the Council and elected members and agencies working in the area.

It was very noticeable that work has been carried out on the estate but much more now needs to be done in conjunction with residents.

I would like to thank Curo and the residents who gave up their time last Thursday I think that we have made real progress.
