Caerphilly Council shortlisted for environmental and well-being awards

Submitted by Caerphilly County Borough Council

Caerphilly County Borough Council has been shortlisted in two categories at this year’s TPAS Cymru Participation Awards.

Involving communities in the delivery of environmental improvements as part of its £260 million Welsh Housing Quality Standard (WHQS) programme is one category it has been shortlisted for.

Also been recognised with a shortlist in the category of ‘Supporting the wellbeing of tenants and residents’ is the work of its Older Persons Housing team. This includes the efforts of staff working to support vulnerable residents in its sheltered housing schemes and via its floating support service.

The annual national TPAS Cymru Participation Awards celebrate best practice in involving tenants and communities in housing related services throughout Wales.  Winners of the 2022 awards will be announced at a celebratory event on July 6.
