Clare Newton

Clare has been a key part of WSHA’s board and she was the first tenant member when she joined in 2000. She is committed to having tenants’ voices at the heart of decision making and she was integral in encouraging increased tenant representation.

Clare is well-known and respected in the social housing sector in Scotland and also had board member roles within Tollcross Housing Association and EVH.

Kelly Adams, chair of WSHA, said: “We want to thank Clare for her significant commitment to WSHA, our tenants and the social housing sector as a whole. Clare has been a valued board member and had a clear impact in ensuring the views of tenants were at the heart of decision making and service delivery.

“She will be missed by staff, tenants and her fellow board members. We wish her the very best for her future and look forward to keeping in touch with her through her continued membership of WSHA.”
