West Highland Housing Association presented with Gold Investors in People award

West Highland Housing Association (WHHA) is celebrating achieving a Gold Investors in People award.

 

WHHA representatives were presented with their award at the group's offices in Oban on Friday June 17 by Jenni Minto, MSP for Argyll and Bute.

 

Jenni said: 'I’m delighted to present this award to an organisation that is delivering the Scottish Government's affordable housing programme, which includes investing in their staff team.

 

'This award demonstrates West Highland is an excellent local employer providing affordable rented housing and affordable housing to buy.'

 

Gerry Boyle, chairman of WHHA's Board of Management said: 'We are all delighted Jenni agreed to be with us today. We also talked about the work West Highland has been doing that resulted in us being awarded Regional Housing Association/landlord of the year at the Scottish Energy Efficiency Awards. We have always benefited from Scottish Government investment for new build housing and other projects within our housing stock and today is a good opportunity to celebrate with the staff and Jenni, our MSP.'
