At Ruchazie Housing Association we are aware that there is a number of our tenants who are living in non-suitable accommodation that does not make the tenants needs, some of these tenants may already be on our waiting list. At Ruchazie HA we are a small housing association with only 226 properties and our waiting lists are extremely long with some people waiting years for a house.

We have put a scheme in place were we can help identify tenants who are looking for a move. By doing this we hope to help our tenants and others find an easier way to see potential moves within the Ruchazie HA stock alleviating urgent needs for our tenants.
If you are someone who is interested in a mutual exchange and meets the requirements for our tenants, contact us on 0141 774 4433 to discuss further. You can view potential swaps on our website using the link below.

Take Charge Glasgow, a new campaign backed by Glasgow City Council and Scottish Fire and Rescue, says residents should never bin batteries or vapes in standard bins found at home or in the street.

Instead, the campaign calls for people to dispose of their batteries and vapes, as well as other small electrical devices, in the dedicated recycling points found in shops that sell batteries, electrical stores and the council's household waste and recycling centres.

Batteries, vapes and electrical devices are believed to behind an estimated 1200 fire-related incidents within refuse vehicles and other waste infrastructure across the UK. Lithium-ion batteries, found in a range of common electrical devices such as mobile phones, games controllers, laptops, Bluetooth headphones and vapes, have been highlighted as a particular issue.
