Our senior staff regularly get out from behind their desks to see what's going on for themselves.

Your housing service is delivered by our 100-strong workforce. You'll see plenty of us out and about in our distinctive Parkway Green jackets making sure your estate is up-to-scratch and tackling problems quickly and efficiently - right up to the chief executive and his directors!

Seeing for yourself

"Local people voted for transfer to Parkway Green because they wanted an organisation that's in touch with local issues" explains chief executive Nigel Wilson. "It's easy for senior staff to sit in an office and look at statistics on how well the organisation is doing, but you can't beat seeing for yourself if a block is being cleaned properly or whether repairs are getting done".

So the chief executive, or one of the three directors, go on an 'estate walkabout' with local staff and tenants' reps every month. Join them when they are out and about next in:

  • Baguley: Tuesday 14 October 2008 - 1:30pm to 3pm
  • Northenden & Northern Moor: Thursday 20 November 2008 - 1:30pm to 3:30pm
  • Newall Green: Thursday 11 December 2008 - 1:30pm to 3:30pm
