Cunninghame Housing Associatio aim to be supportive towards all of our tenants. We aim to give our tenants the upmost support and help. Here are some of the ways we try to assist our tenants during the cost-of-living crisis:
Lemon Aid:
We offer crisis support through the current Energy Crisis. We aim to prevent loss of connection and help to restore power. This includes arranging credit for those on prepayment meters with no funds. In April 2023 we gave £5,220 worth of vouchers to assist tenants with their gas and electricity bills. This service is available to all our residents. Please, do not hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions.
If you seek support or advice, follow this link to fill out the self-referral form.
