Tenants' groups with Council tenants can register with us as a Registered Tenants Organisation (RTO). RTOs have a legal right to be informed about and consulted on changes to housing management and services.
RTOs can join to communicate with the Scottish Government. Membership is free. Anyone interested in becoming a member can email info@tenantstogether.scot to find out more, or stay up to date with their work by signing up to its newsletter at .

Tenant Participation Strategy 2025 – 2028
Tenant participation gives tenants a say in the housing services they receive. It enables the Council to build better links with tenants, local communities and others.
We developed the Tenant Participation Strategy to empower tenants so they can have their say about the service they receive. To do that, we’ve consulted tenants and partners to agree a new strategy for 2025 – 2028. The strategy is based on what was important to tenants and how they wanted to take part.
Under the new strategy, we will make sure that tenants are treated with respect, listened to and given a chance to influence decision making. This includes giving honest feedback to tenants about how and why decisions are made.
Tenant Participation should be easy and accessible for everyone. To achieve this, we have set this strategy around four key principles. We’ll then set out how we’ll achieve these principles through an action plan.
The four key principles are
- the importance of good communication
- improved opportunities to participate
- tenant Led Scrutiny is strengthened
- tenant Participation is supported and prioritised
