What do CaRTO do?
CaRTO work in partnership with Castlehill and are consulted as part of the decision-making process. They make recommendations, give feedback and shape Castlehill’s policies, procedures and publications.
CaRTO also come up with their own ideas to support tenants. Their initiatives include:
Digital inclusion project at Queen Elizabeth Court in Fettercairn
Alan Morrison Above & Beyond Award
Participatory Budgeting fund for tenants
When do CaRTO meet?
CaRTO meet at 6pm on the second Wednesday of the month online using Zoom.
What if I can’t manage meetings, but still want to be involved?
You can attend any CaRTO meeting virtually, via Zoom (either video call or simply by calling in using your landline/mobile).
If you’d prefer to dip in and out of tenant participation, CaRTO Home Link is an easy way to see what’s going on and be involved, without the meetings. Home Link is a digital discussion forum. All you need is an email address.
