A campaigning association for people living, working in St James & Spencer areas of Northampton, England, to help and signpost them to get help with their concerns. To represent and to promote the interests of all the tenants and residents living in our area, with an ethos of personal responsibility. Further, to assist (through signposting and intervention) residents with their concerns.
3. To
work for improvements to our homes; to the Housing Service and other services we receive; and to the local environment including cleaner air, working to achieve a “greener” future with “green” technologies, where possible.
4. To work in partnership with other agencies to achieve our aims and to seek to engage local councillors and authority officers to work to the best advantage of the association and in turn the residents.
5. To work to support and encourage local business, in particular small businesses, which are the lifeblood of any community.
6. To encourage residents to take part in the democratic political process. As a means to achieving our aims, where possible and if appropriate, stand our own “independent” candidate in local elections, but to work in co-operation with, but not support, endorse or promote any one political party. The Association will promote any charitable aim to further the above objectives; and will foster a community spirit in order to advance education and to provide facilities for training and recreation, to further health and the relief of poverty, sickness and distress.
