The countdown begins to moving to your new home
All secure residents have now been allocated alternative accommodation and we will start the process to move you to your new home. This begins by moving residents to Lidcote & Cumnor first then Brixton Road thereafter.
But dont forget, all secure residents have the right to return guarantee to move back to the New Wayland once it is rebuilt during 2015. We are aware that moving home can be quite daunting; therefore we have provided you all with a countdown to moving check list that is a useful guide to help you through the process. If you need any further support or assistance please do not hesitate to contact Kim Wills or Pamela da Costa who will be happy to answer any queries you may have.
We will start the viewing process with residents moving to Brixton Road late September. So dont forget to look out for your appointment date.

SERViCE CHARGES We are currently setting the service charges for both redevelopment schemes.
A service charge is separate from your rent and will pay for items such as cleaning to your block, gardening to shared area, lift, entryphone, CCTV. The average cost for both redevelopment sites are likely to be around 22.00 per week per household. A full breakdown of these charges will be given at the point of signing your new tenancy agreement.
UNiVERSAL CREDit The benefit system is changing from April 2013 where the government will introduce Universal Credit that is made up of a standard allowance. This allowance can include:
Child Element / Disabled Child Additions Childcare Element Carer Element Limited Capability for Work Element Housing Element.
If you qualify for Universal Credit, payment will be made on a monthly basis direct to you. This means you will be responsible for paying all your bills including rent and council tax. It is easier to manage your bills if you pay by Direct Debit. Let us know if you would like us to send you a Direct Debit form.

WHAt HAVE WE DONE SO fAR? We spent May and June sharing the New Wayland House designs we have worked through with you, with the wider community. Most of their concerns so far are about the height of the proposed New Wayland House.
All comments, both positive and negative, have been collected and will be submitted as part of a community consultation strategy with the planning application. Lambeth Planning Department will also conduct their own statutory consultation with all households affected by the proposals, along with the planning application after the consultation period ends. As a resident led housing association we are keen to keep you updated. Some of you came along to the exhibition sessions held in May and June. If you would like to see the changes made to the designs and what we have submitted to planning, please pop along to the resource centre next to the housing office. We will be holding another drop in session for Wayland House secure residents on 4th October 2012 at 6pm at the Resource Centre next to the housing office.
If you are elderly or disabled and require a home visit to see the latest plans please contact Kim Wills or Pamela Da Costa on 0207 326 3720 or 0208 438 1088 to make an appointment.
