Part of our community
Two Rivers Housing is much more than just a housing provider – we are part of the communities we serve and work #Twogether with local authorities and other partners to improve things for people living in our neighbourhoods.
Our teams work with partners to hold events throughout the year, including holiday clubs for families and activities at our HomePlus communal centres. Our team members also raise money for charity through raffles or donating food, clothes, toys and gifts to local people in need.
We have been involved with events and projects such as:
- Breakfast clubs during school holidays.
- Pizza workshops in schools and community centres.
- Setting up a community larder in Sedbury.
- Planting a community orchard.
- Community clean ups.
These are just examples and the ideas come from the people who live in our communities as well as local community organisations. We see this as an important part of building supportive neighbourhoods, so we’re delighted to help where we can.
Many of our staff have received dementia awareness training. We have also worked with the Forest of Dean Dementia Action Alliance to produce the ‘Let’s Talk Dementia’ board game. We have copies available to loan.
We have close links with Adult Education, the Salvation Army in Broadwell, the Barnwood Trust and Freedom Leisure, to name just a few of the partners we work with to provide events, training and support.
If you have an idea for a project in your area and would like our help or advice please contact our Community Engagement team.
