Phil Lyons
I’m Chair of South Essex Homes’ Management Board, and the last year has been challenging in lots of ways. I joined the Board in 2005 and I'm a local resident. I've learned a great deal about housing and what local people think - which has been a real eye-opener.
The majority of people are understandably most interested in their own home, neighbourhood and local services. So I spend a lot of time going around the borough to visit staff and residents and finding out what things are like on the ground.
My aim
I’m particularly interested in helping South Essex Homes to:
Provide an excellent service.
