A new project from the Colleague and Resident Panel (CARP)
At Settle, we believe everyone should feel proud of where they live. But we know that’s not always the case. Some residents have told us they’ve felt judged, misunderstood or treated differently because they live in social housing.
That’s not okay — and we want to do something about it.
Our Colleague and Resident Panel (CARP), made up of colleagues who are Settle residents and residents from other housing associations, is leading a new project to explore stigma in social housing – what it looks like, how it feels, and what needs to change. We want to hear directly from residents to understand your experiences and how stigma might have shown up in your life.
This is about listening, learning and making change together.
We’re inviting residents of all ages to take part – whether you’ve experienced stigma personally, seen it in your community or the media, or just have thoughts on how we challenge outdated views.
👋 And if you're a younger resident or have someone between the ages of 14-18 living with you, we especially want to hear from you. Your voice and your experience matter too – and can help shape what happens next.
💬It only takes a few minutes to share your views in our short survey.
📢Let’s challenge stigma together – and make sure everyone feels proud of their home.

💬It only takes a few minutes to share your views in our short survey.
We want to better understand your experiences as a resident. This includes how living in social housing may feel and how you think it’s seen by others. Your views will help us challenge stigma, shape services, and push for greater respect and fairness across our communities.
