recap of the last year

Despite being a small committee, GLERA has been working hard on your behalf. Over the past year we have:

  • Supported the GLLC campaign and stood alongside residents fighting for the leisure centre
  • Organised the second Golden Lane Action Days to highlight the poor condition of our estate
  • Raised concerns with the City of London and our MP following the regulator’s judgement, and arranged for the Executive Director of Community and Children’s Services to speak at the AGM
  • Run our first 60‑second survey to identify key issues such as damp and mould
  • Pressed COLPAI about noise, night‑time lighting and litter
  • Attended Resident Liaison Group meetings for each project
  • Represented residents on the new Major Works Project Board
  • Met monthly with Judith Finlay and housing officers to discuss repairs, complaints and the running of the estate office
  • Set up a leaseholders’ group to focus on issues specific to leaseholders during redevelopment
  • Created a technical group to scrutinise proposed works and ensure value for money
  • Started forming house groups to share information and support as major works begin
