This section covers other customer standards and outcomes.

To meet the standard for our Gypsy/Traveller customers we manage the sites so that they are well maintained and meet the minimum site standards set in Scottish Government guidance. All the standards and outcomes in the Charter apply to Gypsy/Travellers.

Clackmannanshire Council successfully secured Scottish Government funding for the redevelopment of the Westhaugh Gypsy/Traveller Site. The site closed in October 2022 once all residents were decanted into mainstream tenancies within our stock portfolio.  The site is currently being redeveloped with completion expected by July 2024.

Our 3 yearly Tenant Satisfaction and Aspiration Survey completed earlier this year with the gypsy traveller community included within this. Of the gypsy/travellers who completed the survey, 75% were satisfied with the management of the site prior to its closure last year.

Upon completion of the newly developed site we hope to offer our residents a better built environment with improved living conditions tailored to their specific need.
