The Rural Housing Association has announced the start of their public consultation for the proposed scheme of 10 new homes on Rathlin. They are also holding a ‘drop-in’ event in the Richard Branson Centre on Wednesday 15th May 2019, from 2:00pm to 5:00pm.
The Gort Beag social housing scheme on the island has been named the National Champions at the 2016 Green Apple Awards for Ireland for their outstanding contribution to sustainability.
Donoghmore Construction Ltd were the main contractor on the project, which was the first social housing to be built on Rathlin in almost twenty years.
Congratulations to Donoghmore Construction on receiving the Environmental Sustainability Award as part of the Construction Excellence Awards 2013. The award was in recognition of Donoghmore's construction of the Gort Beag houses on the island.
Congratulations to all the new tenants of Gort Beag - our new neighbours here in the Resource Centre! Today saw all the paperwork being completed, and the handing over of the keys to the new residents of the ten beautiful new houses.
If anyone needs to renew their application or fill in a new housing application, please do so as soon as possible as this helps give clear figures of social housing needs on Rathlin. Forms are available in the Resource Centre.
