Lottery Cash for Tenants : Dunterlie families are set to battle their way out of the recesion - with a little bit of help from their landlords. Tenants in the area willhave the chance to take part in more artist led workshops, and also boost their self esteem and employment prospects through specialised lessons after Barrhead Housing Association was granted a huge cash injection by a national recession fund. The Association was awarded more than £27,000 by The Big Lottery fund to help support families in the area and allow them to gain more skills for social living. And the housing authority are putting the cash to good use. Continuing to fund the BASIS project for the forseeable future. The initiative which centres around arts opportunities, has been a huge success in the community, bringing families and friends together for learning and BHA are keen to keep it going. Chairperson, Claire Boyd, was happy to announce the lucrative award. She said : 'we are delighted to receive this funding to continue the good work experience through our successful BASIS project'.

Partnering Opportunities : Most residents will know that we work with our Renfrewshire Housing Association partners, FLAIR, and have done so for many years. A copy of our latest Annual Review is available. Please click here.

We are now also working with Inverclyde local associations to form I-FLAIR. We see the benefits of future partnerships working for the development of new housing, but also for potential financial savings through tendering for our planned maintenance programmes. The Scottish Government would wish us to see benefits for delivering bigger programmes at reduced costs ! We are now in the process of developing a separate website for IFLAIR - so watch this space for more details soon.

Payment by Credit Card :    If you are paying by credit card, we have to advise you that payments of less than £500 are subject to a charge ranging between 2.1%-2.85%. See Payment Information for further information

Care Commission :  We have recently received the latest report which you can find under Publications. An Action Plan has addressed any recommendations for improvement.
