Resident Expenses Policy
Westcountry benefits greatly from any time and commitment given by residents. We are committed to ensuring that any costs that you incur because of your involvement are reimbursed. You can download the full Resident Expenses Policy. Or see a handy summary of expenses that residents can claim and how to claim them. We aim to ensure that residents are reimbursed as soon as possible after they have made a claim, usually on the same day.

Training will be offered alongside every opportunity to be involved, so don’t be put off if you feel don’t have many of the skills required at the moment – enthusiasm and a willingness to learn is all that matters. This could be an opportunity for you to gain new skills.
We run taster days for all our current Resident Involvement Opportunities regularly. This will be a chance to learn about all the different opportunities open to residents, have a go at what is involved and talk one to one with the Resident Involvement Team to find the opportunity that best suits you and the time you can give.
If you like more information about coming to the next day email the team on involve@westcountryha.org.uk
