East Riding Council Tenants - Online!

COUNCIL TENANTS in the East Riding now have their own website at www.ertol.co.uk which contains information for tenants and useful contacts, including who your tenant representatives might be.

The website has been created through a working collaboration between Goole College students and Tenant Representatives. The result is an easy-to-navigate site that allows you to find out about the work of the East Riding Tenants' Forum. A map of the 'East' area will take you to a list of tenant groups in South Holderness which includes informal groups in Preston, Roos, Thorngumbald and Aldborough, plus the only formal Tenants Association which is the St Patrick's Green TA in Patrington.

There is also a Guestbook that you can complete (although I took too long to complete my message and got timed out after only a few minutes - Ed) which can be used to leave comments and opinions. The website also contains a useful link to the House Exchange which is the national tenants home swap scheme.

Perhaps a useful development now, would be creating more hyperlocal-type websites for those Associations and informal groups that wish to play a more pro-active online role in their areas?
