Community Heroes Awards
Platform’s annual Community Heroes Awards recognise those unsung heroes who make a real difference, whether as an individual or as part of a community group.
There are a range of awards up for grabs including, Going the Extra Mile, Young Person, Communities Together, Customer Involvement, Positive Change and Community Partnership.
I find it very interesting in the sense that you get to learn about all the various departments and the amount of work that goes into providing social housing on such a large scale. It's lovely to see the great work that comes out of Platform's Community Chest, Wellbeing Fund and Community projects.
Platform Voices
Platform Voices is a space for you to share ideas, discuss important topics, provide feedback and talk to us about what's important to you in your home and community.
It's easy for you to tell us what you think, from the comfort of your own home. You can get involved at a time and place that suits you. Whether you take part in projects, complete quick polls, and surveys, and share your views on our ideas boards you can help us develop and improve our services.
Antisocial Behaviour
The safety and wellbeing of our customers is always our number one priority. We understand that Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB), neighbour disputes and environmental problems can have a significant impact on people’s mental health and sense of security as well as harming the wider community.
Community Chest
We are committed to making a difference for our customers and communities and our annual Platform Community Chest Fund of £160,000 supports this aim.
If you're a charity, club, other not-for-profit organisation or a Platform customer, you can apply for Community Chest funding to bring about positive changes in our local communities. All applications are assessed by members of our Customer Voice Panel.
Communities Connected
Our Communities Connected programme of events offers our customers, colleagues, and community partners a wide range of opportunities to work together on neighbourhood projects to make a difference and celebrate our communities, themed around our nine community priorities.
