The supplier will need to work closely with the Keep Wales Tidy Policy and Research Team in the development of the research.
The research project is split into two lots:
Lot 1: Understanding the tenant perspective – University Students
We are most urgently looking to hear directly from University Students who are HMO tenants and gather insights into the factors affecting waste management behaviours. The research must include participants from this key audience.
1. We need to hear from a cross-section of University Students who are representative of the overall mix of this tenure type. The supplier is free to suggest the most appropriate form of research (including focus group, one to one interviews) to gather the themes set out below:
• Tenants’ understanding of the language used to describe fly-tipping, waste, and waste management processes.
• Tenants’ understanding of the mechanisms in place to dispose of bulky items.
• Tenants’ experience of disposing bulky items.
• Tenants’ awareness of low-cost borrowing and free repair facilities e.g. libraries of things, repair cafes.
• Tenants’ likelihood to use/access on low-cost borrowing / free repair facilities e.g. libraries of things/repair cafes.
• How tenants source information on waste management processes.
• Litter and recycling facilities within HMOs.
• Different waste behaviours within the HMOs.
• Whether their landlord has given instructions about waste management in and around the property.
• Whether the tenancy agreement includes conditions about clearing the property at the end of the tenancy.
• How the level of waste produced by the HMO varies throughout the year.
• Ideas for improving waste management in HMOs.
• How tenants respond to different themes of ‘anti-litter’ messaging.
• An understanding of what types of communications are likely to reach them and their fellow tenants (letters, texts, digital media) and where they look for information re. subjects such as disposal and recycling.
Lot 2: Understanding the tenant perspective – Tenants in RSL properties
We are then looking to hear directly from HMO tenants in Social Housing properties and gather insights into the factors affecting waste management behaviours. The research must include participants from this key audience.
We need to hear from a cross-section of Social Housing tenants but with a strong representation from those who live in flats or other homes with shared bins or refuse areas or HMOs if the social housing organisation manages homes of this tenure type, who are representative of the overall mix of this tenure type. The supplier is free to suggest the most appropriate form of research (including focus group, one to one interviews) to gather the themes set out below:
• Tenants’ understanding of the language used to describe fly-tipping, waste, and waste management processes.
• Tenants’ understanding of the mechanisms in place to dispose of bulky items.
• Tenants’ experience of disposing bulky items.
• Tenants’ awareness of low-cost borrowing and free repair facilities eg libraries of things, repair cafes.
• Tenants’ likelihood to use/access on low-cost borrowing / free repair facilities e.g. libraries of things/repair cafes.
• How tenants source information on waste management processes.
• Litter and recycling facilities within flat blocks / HMOs.
• Different waste behaviours within the flat blocks / HMOs.
• Whether their landlord has given instructions about waste management in and around the property.
• Whether the tenancy agreement includes conditions about clearing the property at the end of the tenancy.
• How the level of waste produced by the flat blocks / HMO varies throughout the year.
• Ideas for improving waste management in flat blocks / HMOs.
• How tenants respond to different themes of ‘anti-litter’ messaging.
• An understanding of what types of communications are likely to reach them and their fellow tenants (letters, texts, digital media) and where they look for information re. subjects such as disposal and recycling.
