About
Us
Southwark
Group of Tenants Organisation (SGTO) is an independent voluntary organisation
representing and promoting the rights of tenants and residents groups within the
London Borough of Southwark. We are a non-political organisation and do not align
to any political viewpoint, our aim is to promote the interest of Tenants and
Residents Associations in Southwark, by working with all stakeholders to achieve
common goals. It originated
from the Association of London Housing Estates, which was founded by the London
County Council in the late 1950s. In 1984, Southwark tenants decided to set up
their own organisation and be responsible for their own affairs.
The Southwark Group of Tenants
Organisation (SGTO) has been in existence for about twenty three
years now. Through the years, SGTO has been involved in campaigning for better
housing conditions, tenants' rights and tenants' involvement in decision making.
In the past year, SGTO has
undergone enormous changes in structure to meet council tenants’ needs. The
rejuvenated SGTO is now strategically positioned to promote
Southwark Council tenants’ rights, ensure tenants involvement in decision
making, safer communities and encourage ethnic and cultural
diversity.
