Kevin Brady has been appointed as the new Chair of the RBH Board by the elected tenants and employees on RBH's Representative Body.

Kevin, who lives in the Borough, was appointed by the RBH Representative Body on Monday evening (17th April) and takes up his new role today (Tuesday 18th April). He brings a broad range and depth of experience in both housing, central and local government, and will play a vital role as we implement our recovery plan and rebuild trust with our tenants, communities, and partner organisations.

I am delighted to be appointed as the new Chair of the RBH Board. Although there are some huge challenges ahead, I am looking forward to working with RBH employees and tenants to make sure that we deliver our recovery plan and make sure that we provide the high quality homes and services that our tenants and communities expect and deserve. As a resident of Middleton, I know how important it is that the Borough's main social housing provider is strong and successful.
