The comments that we got back from residents show that those who participated got a real insight into the decision-making process that touches so many people's lives.

How Citizen Space transforms housing engagement

1. Makes it easy to remove barriers to participation

Design consultations in plain English with translations where needed, using images, maps, and easy-read versions to make complex housing issues understandable for everyone. Mobile optimisation comes as standard, so residents can respond anywhere, anytime without needing any technical expertise.

2. Helps you gather actionable insight

Structure questions that reveal what residents actually need, using the right question types for each decision. Focus on issues residents can genuinely influence so they know their voice matters and engagement feels worthwhile.

3. Reaches beyond the usual voices

Share links or QR codes to open consultations through estate noticeboards, resident associations, housing officers, and community centres rather than relying solely on email to the already-engaged. Meet residents where they are, and hear from a more diverse group of respondents.

4. Reveals how different communities experience issues

Filter responses by estate, tenure type, or demographic to see how different groups experience the same issues. Identify which estates need tailored approaches rather than applying one-size-fits-all solutions.

5. Makes it simple to show feedback made a difference

Publish clear summaries showing how resident input shaped decisions and build trust with residents throughout the engagement process.

6. Supports ongoing relationships, not just one-off consultations

Move beyond minimum statutory consultation by making regular engagement part of how you work with residents. Use templates for satisfaction surveys, event registrations, quick polls, and ongoing feedback to build trust through consistent involvement, not just when you're legally required to ask.
