Get involved

We want to give all our customers the opportunity to influence how our services are delivered, so we offer different ways for you to engage with us. If you want to make a positive difference, get involved!

You can feed back about the services you receive from us, get involved in how those services are managed, and have a say in new services or services that are changing.

We hold a database of customers who have requested to be engaged with a service area of interest and how you'd like to give your views.

We make it easy for you to be involved. We pay travel expenses and help arrange travel if needed, we also pay child care costs.

If you are interested in giving your views, please let us know by completing our online form. This gives the three areas of interest and your feedback options.

To take part in our current surveys, and to see the feedback and outcomes from recently completed surveys, click here.

Face to face Task and Finish focus group meetings

A task and finish group is a face to face meeting of one or two meetings with a group of interested customers. We generally use task and finish groups where a particular issue needs to be examined in detail or, where we would like your views on a very specific subject or question.

When a topic is identified for a task and finish group, we’ll contact customers who have told us they're interested in this type of service to see if you can make the date and time of the meeting(s).

Events

We have various events throughout the year which you can come along to and give your views as well as having a good time! This could be a community event or an open day. Some of our events are in partnership with other agencies. These events are usually free to attend. Keep an eye on our social media for upcoming events.

If you think where you live could benefit from an event to bring the community together, contact Neil Bliss, Customer & Community Involvement Officer, on 01984 635134 or email engage@magna.org.uk.

Social Media

We're on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. We also have a customer Facebook group for current customers to join. Come and follow our accounts and join the conversation.

Scrutiny Group

The purpose of the group is:

‘A group of residents working together with staff to check and challenge our service delivery and performance to help improve services.’

They will look at specific areas where evidence is showing we could do better with the service we currently provide.

If you are interested, contact Neil Bliss, Customer & Community Involvement Officer, on 01984 635134 or email engage@magna.org.uk

We're currently recruiting additional members for this group. Find out more here

Mystery shoppers

We ask some of our customers to comment on the work we do, but they remain anonymous to all staff apart from one person. They are our mystery shoppers and they can give frank and honest opinions about the work we do. If you would like to be a mystery shopper, please contact Neil Bliss, Customer & Community Involvement Officer, on 01984 635134 or email engage@magna.org.uk.

Thanks to everyone who has been involved in our groups, events and meetings over the years. We really appreciate the time you have given to help improve our services.
