Changes to Area Managers
We have just found out that as part of the restructuring programme, the majority of Housing Area Managers will be moving areas.
From 10th August 2009, the new Area Managers will be as follows:
- Airdrie - Brendan Sherry
- Coatbridge - David Dymock
- The North - Bob Brownlie
- Bellshill - Alison Clarke
- Motherwell - Lorraine Anderson
- Wishaw & Shotts - Stephen Llewellyn
Obviously, this has an effect on our review of the chairpersons meetings. We hope to go and visit all the chairpersons meetings in an area to speak to tenants about how they are working. This gives a slight delay to that process but hopefully we can be back up and running as soon as possible.
