People living in properties managed by one of Nottinghamshire's biggest housing associations say there is a 'strong sense of community' among its tenants
People living in properties managed by one of Nottinghamshire's biggest housing associations say there is a "strong sense of community" among its tenants. The Nottingham Community Housing Association is celebrating its 50th anniversary after having started in April 1973 with a loan from Nottingham City Council and a small grant from Shelter.
"I've won the lottery really given that we're in a cost of living crisis because we have a communal boiler where we are so it's really cheap and you can have the heating on 24/7, which I sometimes need to because the almshouse ceilings are very high and the heat obviously rises. There's a really friendly feel about where I live too and I get on really well with everybody.
"I also act as the Chair of their Homes and Neighbourhoods Panel. That is essentially there to provide constant feedback from NCHA customers to the association and I have to say that they've always been very responsive to that and keen to hear it."
