Region 1: Highland and Argyll & Bute

About Region 1

Highland and Argyll & Bute Regional Network held their inaugural AGM in February of 2008 and their second AGM on 30 March 2009. The committee now has nine members, with Steve Byrne as Chair.

The region has a communication strategy in place which includes the production of an annual newsletter.

Message from the Chair

When the idea of regional networks was introduced all those years ago I thought it was just another way of passing information down to tenants while letting them think they are involved. It was a dream of mine that one day tenants actually would be involved in shaping policy but to be honest I never thought that dream would come true. How wrong I was.

Although the Regional Networks are in their infancy they are already actively involved in various sounding boards that are shaping policy and by working together we will become part of the solution rather than part of the problem. One group of people must be foremost in our minds, the tenants, as they are the reason we are where we are and we do what we do to improve their quality of life.
