You Said, We Did
In 2019, the Tenant Scrutiny Panel reviewed how anti-social behaviour complaints are handled. Their 9 recommendations were implemented by the council. Full report: www.rotherhamfederation.org/wp-content/u...

The Tenant Scrutiny Panel turns tenant feedback into real change. After reviewing support for new tenants, their recommendations have led to meaningful improvements that help residents settle in. See whatโ€™s changed:

Thereโ€™s no single way to get involved โ€” and no set level of commitment.
You can share your views in person or online, get involved regularly or just now and then.
Tell us what youโ€™re interested in, and weโ€™ll help find an opportunity that works for you.

We want to remind you not to swim in open water even if the water looks calm.

Shallow water can feel warmer at the edge of reservoirs, rivers, and lakes.

Never jump into open water where deeper water is much colder even in hot weather.

Cold water shock can kill in 60 seconds.
