Overview
Tenants and Residents Associations (TRAs) are groups of residents who volunteer to represent the views and interests of everyone living in their area.
They work in partnership with us to help make their neighbourhood a better place to live.
Everyone who lives in Southwark as a tenant or homeowner can become a member of a tenants and residents association (TRAs). Anybody can choose to stand to become more involved, for example becoming a block representative or part of a TRA committee.
Each TRA committee has a:
- chair
- vice chair
- secretary
- treasurer
Some TRAs also organise social activities in their area.
TRA members can develop skills through free online training courses.
