Whiteinch and Scotstoun Housing Association

Whiteinch & Scotstoun Housing Association Ltd. is a Charity Registered in Scotland, is registered with the Financial Services Authority and the Scottish Housing Regulator, and controlled by a Committee of Management which includes local tenants and home owners. The Association had its origins in two local community groups : the Whiteinch Housing Action Group and Scotfore. The former was established in 1975 with the express aim of 'retention of the community' in the face of demolition of houses and shops brought about by the Clyde Tunnel and the clearance policy of that time. The latter organisation (Scotfore) was set up around about the same time to coordinate a large environmental improvement project in Scotstoun. These two bodies formed the basis of the original membership of the Housing Association which was formally constituted late in 1977. More info
