Mystery shopping training is a hit with residents 

 

Residents trained to assess Tower Hamlets Homes

On Saturday 7 February 2009, 12 residents took part in a training session on how to become resident mystery shoppers. The session was informal as well as informative, feedback from those taking part included:

“Brilliant afternoon”

“Thoroughly enjoyed the session”

“I really enjoyed today and I am looking forward to the next step”.

The session included fun interactive tasks which helped improve observation and listening skills. Residents learnt how they can help improve services and questions to ask when carrying out their shops.

Those who took part were asked to tell us their views about the training session. Here’s what they told us:
