In June 2007 Old Ford Housing Association had 1,000 homes in its portfolio. By the close of 2007/8 financial year, this had jumped to 4,416 homes, as a direct result of three separate transfers.
Old Ford is now working to implement a £55 million refurbishment programme for the Parkside estate and £80 million regeneration programme for Mardyke residents.
The third transfer involved a number of homes from Circle 33 Housing Trust and those residents can look forward to improved service delivery from a more local office.
