Williamsburgh Housing Association holds first virtual AGM

Working in a new world where everyone is so reliant on technology to communicate with each other, Williamsburgh Housing Association is delighted to announce its first virtual Annual General Meeting was held on 16 September. 

Shareholding members received a warm welcome from Chairperson, Margaret Symons, who highlighted that housing had a key part to play in the recovery from COVID-19 and that Williamsburgh were supporting Scottish Housing Day 2020 to recognise the value of Housing to both its tenants and our wider communities.

Margaret highlighted that Scottish Housing Day 2020 was a great opportunity to reflect and celebrate excellent work in the sector and in particular the individual support that Williamsburgh staff had provided to tenants by contacting in particular, their elderly and more vulnerable tenants to offer support and advice or even just for a chat.

She said: “This is a whole new world for everyone, and I am delighted at how smoothly our AGM went.  It was particularly fitting that it was held on Scottish Housing Day.”
