Tube Court Floods and Home Group Failure
On Friday afternoon, a dramatic flood occurred at Tube Court, a seven-story (four with flats) residential building managed by Home Group in Ouseburn Ward. This building, home to around 50 residents and about a decade old, it has a mixing of housing association tenants and some residents with shared and private ownership. In the past Home Group have been thought of as a responsive landlord although in my view this reputation has been eroded over the last couple of years in their Newcastle sites and this time, the failures have been profound.
Three Years Without a Clean Audit Opinion — Why It Matters
Newcastle City Council is about to approve its latest annual accounts.
But for the third year in a row the auditors cannot say whether the accounts are reliable. They did not receive enough clear and complete evidence to be sure that the figures are right.
That should matter to all of us.
Vision from my point of view
In October 2021, out of the blue I became seriously ill with Infective endocarditis this led to multiple strokes, a bout of sepsis and a long hospital stay. I don’t recall waking up blind; instead, I have memories of being told about surgeries and gradually adjusting to a new reality.
