§ Keith HillThe North British Housing Association (NBH) has spent £590,000 to ensure effective resident involvement and consultation in the development of proposals for the stock transfer of the Tollington Estates from Islington council to NBH. This has involved extensive resident involvement in the preparation of the masterplan for the estates, the provision of an estate based office to provide an accessible information point for residents and the production and circulation of newsletters to everyone living on the estates.
This sum has been funded internally within NBH. There has been no financial support to NBH from other bodies.
