Housing bodies the Chartered Institute of Housing in Scotland and HouseMark Scotland have formally relocated from central Edinburgh premises on Princes Street to newly refurbished offices at 160 Dundee Street in Fountainbridge. They have been joined in their new offices by Procurement for Housing (PfH) Scotland, a subsidiary of HouseMark.
CIH Scotland took the opportunity of an informal office opening ceremony attended by a cross section of housing sector stakeholders on Friday of last week to announce that an inaugural Scottish Housing Day will take place on Monday 19 September 2016.
The purpose of Scottish Housing Day will be to raise public awareness of the importance of housing policy issues and to give the public easier access to the resources they need to make properly informed housing decisions. Partner organisations are organising a busy programme of events to mark Scottish Housing Day and the general public will be encouraged to get involved through participation in events and interaction with social media and a dedicated website.
