Bosses at Midlands housing association Nehemiah UCHA held a family fun day for residents at their Field Street properties to entertain tenants and provide information about services.

Along with face painting for children and entertainment provided by a magician, residents were given advice on money management, energy bills and home insurance as well as having the opportunity to raise questions with their landlord Nehemiah UCHA about issues ranging from tree felling to activities for the younger members of the community.

Nehemiah UCHA Tenant Involvement Manager and organiser of the fun day Tony Douglas said: "We had a great turn out of residents on the day and the weather was really good. Nehemiah UCHA purchased the Field Street properties from Orbit Heart of England Housing Association earlier this year and the fun day provided a great opportunity for the residents to meet the Management team and Chairman of Nehemiah UCHA and also gave people the chance to learn more about Nehemiah UCHA and the services that are available to tenants."

Nehemiah UCHA manages 1000 properties across the West Midlands with 283 properties in Wolverhampton and the association holds regular walkabouts at their properties so residents have the opportunity to meet staff and talk about any issues they may have.

Chairman of Nehemiah UCHA Kwadwo Owusu-Darko commented: "I was really pleased to attend the open day and enjoyed talking direct to the residents of Field Street. As a community-based housing provider we like to work closely with our tenants to ensure we deliver the homes and services that they want. Meeting them face to face and learning about what they like and don't like is a great way of ensuring we reach our target of 100% tenant satisfaction."
