Custodial history:
The Hulme Tenants Participation Project was an independent project set up and run by Hulme Tenants, funded by the Department of Education, Manchester City Council and the Housing Corporation, to employ and manage support and development staff, to facilitate tenant involvement and promote tenant participation in the Hulme redevelopment process.
The Hulme Repairs Committee was an association of tenants from the Hulme area opposing the City Council's reduction in repairs service.
The Hulme Tenants Alliance was formed on 25 Sep 1984 at a joint meeting of existing Hulme Tenants groups. Such joint meetings had taken place for some time and it was decided to establish an 'umbrella' group to share information and support action on Hulme-wide problems. The joint tenants meetings were being serviced by the newly-appointed Tenants Liaison Officer for the area, who was present at the first Alliance meeting. The Alliance met on average once a month at various venues and was attended regularly by members of 4 or 5 Hulme tenants groups; meetings were widely publicised and open to anyone to attend. The Alliance offered support to any individual tenants group who asked for it. The Alliance was involved in many campaigns including on the subjects of: Asbestos; Hulme Forum; Grievances; Social Strategy; Compensation and the Cockroach Campaign. (See 'Hulme Tenants Alliance minutes (including first meeting)' file, BOX 1, for more information).
