Spring 2023 Newspoint

Spring has arrived and we are pleased to present our Spring edition of Newspoint!

Read all about the copper switch off and what it means for you!
Get advice, help and assistance - about things such as welfare benefits, how to get debt advice and where to find foodbanks and warm spaces.
Tenant Participation - Is It For You? See our article about our new tenants participation strategy with information about all the different ways you can get involved.
And as always there are lots of photos and stories from around our houses including two tenants who have been at Glenesk for nearly 20 years, a short story written by one of our tenants, and a fabulous photo of one of our residents at Marian House who celebrated her 100th birthday at the end of last year and received her birthday greeting from the King!
