A welcome hand: these local tenants' reps are looking forward to their Southway future.

The word on the street

We've been out and about asking local tenants' reps how they feel about the start of their Southway future . . .

"A change like this can be quite daunting – but we're ultimately excited about the future with Southway. We’re looking forward to tenants having a bigger ‘say-so’ in their areas, including improvements to the local environment."
Shirley Fitzpatrick Parrswood Tenants Association

"I’d like to see stronger relations between tenants and owner-occupiers. I think good things happen when people work together to make them happen."
Leonie Pomfret Ladybarn Estate Residents Association, Withington

"We’re Southway residents, just like everyone else – with similar concerns, and similar expectations. I’d love to see more residents getting involved – to make that voice even louder".
Jan Maughan Chair of Parrswood Tenants Association, and Southway board member.
