David Hitchcock
We are sad to announce that our CLT Chairman, David Hitchcock, passed away on September 29th 2017 following a short illness.
David dedicated a huge amount of time to his CLT duties and was a major force in getting our affordable housing at Bramblehay built.
We are sure all our shareholders will join with the CLT directors in expressing our deepest sympathy to David’s family.

Welcome to Bramblehay, Marshwood as residents move in
Passing through Marshwood at night recently you may have noticed lights on in the new affordable homes at Bramblehay. The builders have moved out and since January Hastoe Housing Association have handing keys over to the new residents much to the relief of all of us involved with Marshwood CLT and I’m sure to those who knew they had been allocated on of the houses and have been waiting patiently to move in.
It has been a very long slog getting our affordable homes built here in Marshwood with setbacks such as the original building company, Brookvale of Yeovil, going into administration part way through construction. Thankfully that is now behind us and with the houses complete and a new native hedge freshly planted around the side and rear of the site which over time should grow into a great habitat for birds and other wildlife.

Following the formal AGM business there will be an opportunity for discussion on what the CLT does next
Work resumes on Marshwood affordable homes
As many will have realised as the houses at the Bramblehay development looked to be close to completion work stopped. This was due to the building firm which was managing the development, Brookvale Homes of Yeovil, going into administration.
This was really frustrating for Marshwood CLT, for Hastoe Housing association, and especially for those prospective tenants who were looking forward to moving into their new homes.
The good news is work on Bramblehay has resumed. Hastoe Housing Association have arranged for Devon based Pemberton Homes to complete the building work needed and Pemberton contractors have started work on site.
Pemberton Homes have worked on other Hastoe projects including the recently built affordable houses just down the road from us at Bluntshay Way & Ryall Road, Whitchurch Canonicorum.

Bramblehay – Tenancy bidding goes live on Dorset Home Choice
Bidding for tenancies in the new Bramblehay houses at Marshwood has opened today (28th October 2014).
The houses have been advertised by Hastoe Housing Association on the Dorset Home Choice weekly Property List (Edition 330).
Anyone who would like to bid for one of the tenancies should do so via Dorset Home Choice by one of the methods shown on their weekly property list. Priority will be given to those with a local connection to the Marshwood Primary School catchment area as laid down in the Section 106 agreement governing the housing development.
