TWT on-the-spot PHOTO. Link Housing opens new office in West Ryde LINK HOUSING opened a new office in West Ryde last Thursday. The new office is located on Level Two at 3-5 Anthony Road, West Ryde and aims to further serve people in the local community who need community housing. Link Housing is now the leading provider of local community housing and the opening ceremony heard City of Ryde Clr Christopher Gordon speak on the council’s role in providing space for notfor-profit community organisations. Link Housing CEO Andrew McAnulty said housing stress is a growing issue and Link Housing is supporting people in need. “We want people to know that we are here to help and support them as they navigate their housing options and settle into the community,” he said. “ We have approximately 3,000 people living in social housing in the Ryde local government area alone. “Our new West Ryde office will allow us to deliver on our mission of enhancing lives through community housing and to help address the growing issue of housing stress.” The story of local Marsfield tenant, Maureen was recently featured in The Weekly Times. Maureen has been a community housing tenant for over a decade and told this newspaper she admires the way Link Housing is treating tenants. “The staff from Link Housing have gone out of their way to help and have been absolutely terrific. “I have a dedicated housing manager who is available at any time to answer questions and she takes a personal interest in my situation.” Disability housing tenant, Estelle, who has cerebral palsy and relies on a wheelchair, has noticed a huge difference since Link Housing took over the management of her property. “I’m impressed with the personal attention that has been shown by Link Housing staff. “My dedicated housing manager calls me on a regular basis in an effort to get to know me and understand my limitations due to my disability. “There are very few properties that cater to people with a disability like mine, yet I feel that Link Housing genuinely cares.” Mr McAnulty said the new West Ryde office is a bright and warm open space that encourages collaboration and inclusiveness. “The spacious area also accommodates Link Housing’s growing staff which includes around 40 housing managers, access and demand officers, client service staff and the community engagement team. “The new office also provides self-service facilities for housing clients and applicants and co-location opportunities for local support services.” Link Housing is a notfor-profit organisation with a charitable mission to provide safe, sustainable and affordable homes to enhance lives and communities. It has been providing community housing for 35 years and now manages 3,800 homes across metropolitan NSW. Every Saturday in March 10 am - 12 pm
