West of Scotland selected as Charing Cross Housing Association transfer partner

We have selected West of Scotland Housing Association as our preferred transfer partner.  If the plans are supported by tenants, the partnership would involve a transfer of all of Charing Cross's engagements to West of Scotland.

In search for a partner, we sought response that would address our five partnership objectives:-

1. Strong governance and financial strength
2. Improving rent and service charge affordability
3. Provide quality homes in an attractive environment
4. Deliver excellent and culturally sensitive services and greater opportunities
5. Develop our people

Both organisations share similar values, and both have a strong commitment to improving the lives of their customers through the homes and services that they provide.  Based on the initial offer, we are confident that a transfer into West of Scotland would deliver more affordable rents and service charges than Charing Cross could support if it stayed independent.  On top of this , West of Scotland would be able to deliver significant investment in your homes and the environment to improve the quality of the homes that we provide, whilst also broadening and improving the range of services available to our customers.

Over the coming months we will be keeping you updated at every stage of the transfer journey and you can find relevant information in the download section of this page including Transfer Newsletters.  If you have any questions then please contact transfer@cxha.org.uk or phone 0141 333 0404.

The first edition of the Transfer News has been issued along with a short survey form which has to be returned by Friday 3 December 2021.  The newsletter and survey form can be found in the information documents section.  Translated versions of the survey form in Urdu, Punjabi, Arabic and Smplified Chinese are now available in the information documents section,
