Garrion People’s Housing Co-operative is a registered social landlord, set up to operate in the Gowkthrapple estate in Wishaw in 1990 to improve housing conditions in the area by providing good quality, affordable rented housing to those in housing need. It operates on a “not-for-profit” basis, and is run by an elected Management Committee consisting of local residents who employ a small staff to manage the Cooperative on a day-to-day basis.
The Co-operative owns 219 properties in the Gowkthrapple Area, and provides a management service for a small number of sharing owners. The type of housing presently provided by the Co-operative is mainly for general needs, although housing developed in recent years observes the principles of barrier free design, and we have managed to provide 15 houses to amenity standard and 28 sheltered units. The development programme is complete for the time being, with no definite funding commitment from Communities Scotland for further units.
Garrion People’s Housing Co-operative aims to be an equal opportunities organisation. |
