SFHA members’ local authority toolkit – includes post-election materials
The toolkit contains materials that you can use post-election to engage with your elected councillors.
Ahead of today’s (5 May) local authority elections, SFHA developed a toolkit for members to use to take part in its Housing Changes Communities campaign activity.
The toolkit also contains materials that you can use post-election to engage with your elected councillors.
The elections’ focus on local issues presents an opportunity for housing associations and co-operatives to build relationships with their councillors, helping to raise awareness of the positive impact their organisations have on their local communities.
The toolkit includes:
- A briefing document for members (PDF)
- Social Housing: An Introduction for Councillors (PDF)
- Template letter to candidates/elected councillors (Word document)
- Template press release (Word document) (can be adapted)
- Social media images
