Street reps from Hattersley and Mottram People’s Association (HAMPA) are more visible than ever thanks to new coats which have been donated by The Longdendale and Hattersley District Assembly.
The Assembly has kindly donated ‘all weather’ coats complete with HAMPA logos so that the ‘street reps’ are immediately identifiable to the local community of Hattersley.
Jean Davison, Secretary of HAMPA, said. “As far we know we are the only such Group operating in the North West. The street reps keep an eye on what’s happening in the local community and then look at ways of making sure any problems are resolved.”
The ‘street reps’ work closely with housing association Peak Valley which has assisted HAMPA in delivering the programme which it considers a great way to communicate with residents.
Phil Corris Managing Director for Peak Valley said: “Street reps are now joining the Peak Valley team on its regular estate inspections so that they can be introduced to even more residents in the area. They are providing a valuable role in feeding back information from residents as well as allowing us to get key messages to residents in a way that is both personal and informal. “
HAMPA would like to recruit more ‘street reps’ to the current team and if you are aged 18 or over and live in the Hattersley & Mottram area you are welcome to join.
Jean Davison said: “It’s a great way to get involved in the local community and meet new people – so please give me a call on 0161 351 1361 to find out more.”
