Robert and Diane Banthorpe

Hull City Council and the Hull Tenants' Forum prides itself on working in partnership together to create a better city. Robert and Diane fit this bill perfectly. Both have been involved with us for quite a number of years, and are also in their community, which is very important to them. Both are Local Area Champions, checking their area nearly everyday for issues, they also regularly litterpick and are at present looking at ways to set up a Tenants and Residents Group. Whenever there is a Forum or meeting of interest to them, they are there constructively putting their points across for their area and feeding into Government consultations and policies. Robert is also an active member of the Customer Access Project Group, which deals with issues in relation to potential customers accessing the Council's services and how we can make them better for everyone.
