    Make a difference in your neighbourhood

    If you have a desire to learn and a passion to make a difference, then the Resident Academy is for you.

    Our online Resident Academy courses offer a special insight into how housing associations like Eastlight, the history of our sector and the world we operate in today.

    We also run in-person Resident Academy events, and we will let you know when the next sessions are taking place.

    If you're inspired to get involved, then a range of opportunities await:

    • Applying for paid roles such as our resident-led Customer Influence Committee
    • Exploring new opportunities to change how Eastlight works and provides services in areas that you are passionate about
    • Making a difference in your neighbourhood through our volunteering opportunities with Eastlight.
