Leaseholder's assoc or RTA (in the Barry Road neighbourhood)

[lousmith]

Hi there, Are there any council leaseholders out there who are members of a local leaseholder association or RTA in the Barry Road neighbourhood, who are affected by Section 20 notices regarding refurbs to the 'decent homes standard'? Was wondering if anyone else was faced with a hefty estimate to replace windows with plastic replacements.

BARA covers the area mentioned. We have a representative who sits on the Neighbourhood Housing Forum at Crown House, and also on the Leaseholder Forum. If you pm me with your details I will put you in touch with him.

Leaseholders Association of Southwark ("Las 2000") are an excellent group of volunteers who have been nothing short of very helpful and insightful into the dodgy and unprofessional workings (and costings) (and estimated costings) of the Council. I strongly suggest you become a member. ?6 a year or something equally daft.

Oooh I have been helpful today!

I forgot to add though, that they can be slow in replying.

This is because they're all working volunteers.

But they've been good to me, they 'ave.
