community ambassador scheme
Merton Council's cabinet approved Clarion Housing's community ambassador scheme to boost resident engagement.
Merton Council's cabinet approved a community ambassador scheme in November 2025, which Clarion Housing is set to trial in Merton. The scheme aims to improve engagement with residents on estates that do not have existing tenant or resident associations, ensuring it complements current community efforts. This approval followed recommendations from the Sustainable Communities Scrutiny Panel.
The initiative is designed to reach residents not currently part of tenant or resident associations, addressing a gap in community engagement. Clarion Housing presented an overview of its services, including resident engagement, at a meeting in March 2025, leading to the scheme's development.
