After consulting with our residents, we've published our Building Safety Resident Engagement Strategy for higher-risk buildings.
In a hurry? Here's a one-page visual summary.
You can find the full Building Safety Resident Engagement Strategy for each building here:

What’s the purpose of this strategy?
This Building Safety Resident Engagement Strategy says how we’ll make sure everyone living in our three tallest buildings is kept informed and able to participate in decision-making about the safety of their building.
It describes how we’ll involve you, listen to you and act on your suggestions and concerns to keep your home as safe as possible.
Why do we need this strategy?
At Curo, your safety is our highest priority. Following the tragic Grenfell Tower fire in June 2017 extensive reviews, recommendations and legislation have emphasised the need for better communication and engagement about safety with residents living in buildings like yours.
In particular, the Building Safety Act 2022 requires us produce a Building Safety Resident Engagement Strategy for all residents and homeowners in our buildings defined under the Act as ‘higher risk residential buildings’ (at least 18 metres in height or have at least seven storeys). Your building is one of three buildings we own that meet this definition.
