💜 October is Month!

🔹 Down syndrome (or Trisomy 21) is a condition in which a person has an extra chromosome.
🔹 Around 1 in every 800 babies will be born with Down syndrome.
🔹 Down syndrome occurs naturally – there is no known cause.

People with Down Syndrome are students, employees, athletes, artists, volunteers, friends and neighbours who bring so much light to our families and communities. This October, we want to celebrate that.

Throughout the month we'll be shining a light on the achievements, talents, and contributions of people with Down Syndrome - alongside Down Syndrome Scotland and Down Syndrome UK - and keep promoting awareness, inclusion, and acceptance within our communities to help create a world where everyone feels valued, respected, and included.

Family Fun Afternoon at Woodlands Recap!!

What a fantastic afternoon at our Family Fun Afternoon in Woodlands! 🎉

Families enjoyed a range of activities, from meeting the reptiles from Rescue & Encounters and getting creative with arts and crafts to taking part in games and enjoying refreshments. It was great to see so many people coming together, having fun, and connecting with their local community.

A big thank you to everyone who came along and to our volunteers who helped make the event such a success. Our Community Support Services Team was also delighted to meet residents and share information about the support available across the community.

We loved spending the afternoon with you and look forward to seeing you at future community events!

Changes to Housing Law – What This Means for You

Stronger protections for damp and mould (Awaab's Law) will take effect from 6 October, this will require landlords to investigate reports within set timescales, keep tenants informed on progress, and carry out repairs more quickly where there is a risk to health. Additional safeguards will apply to vulnerable households, with greater accountability for landlords.

You don’t need to take any action in response to these changes, but you can read more about all of them over on our website: https://westscot.co.uk/important-changes-to-housing-law.../

If you have any questions at all, please contact our customer service team on 0141 550 5600

Great news for more of our tenants! WSHA have secured additional funding to extend our insulation and ventilation programme across more of our pre-1919 tenement homes.

Delivered in partnership with Union technical Services the insulation and ventilation works involve injecting insulation into suitable wall cavities from inside the home, together with ventilation improvements where required.

The previous phase of this programme had delivered improvements to 265 homes and secured more than £1.45 million in
funding with excellent feedback from customers. One tenant living in a top floor flat reported that her home now retains heat for much longer after the heating is switched off. Before the insulation was installed, she needed her heating on almost constantly, but now only needs it a few hours each day. Other tenants have reported warmer rooms, reduced heating use and an excellent standard of finish following the work.

*We have a relatively short window to complete the insulation works, with all funded installations required to be completed by 5 January 2027.*

If your home is eligible, Union Technical Services will contact you directly to arrange a survey. If you are contacted, please respond as soon as possible so your home can be assessed and, if suitable, the works can be completed within the funding period.

If you have any questions, please contact WHSA Customer Service in a first instance on 0141 550 5600 or [email protected].
