About the Directory
See below for details of Tenants and Residents Associations (TRAs) and their umbrella bodies. SHAC supports the development of democratically run TRAs as a means of empowering people. A report by the London Assembly recognised that TRAs can offer
“independent tenant voices … a positive way for residents to engage with landlords … [TRAs] have long been used for residents to engage with social housing landlords. TRAs can build a sense of community and provide an effective collective voice.” Housing Committee Report 2018
Our aim in compiling the directory is to facilitate coordination and mutual assistance amongst groups on the basis of either a common landlord or locality. Contact us to add yours. If you would like to set up your own TRA, please see our Resources page.
