ETF office closure
Update
If you have been following ETF's work, you will know that the Federation Office has been closed since we moved into lockdown last year and that staff have been working from home. Despite these restrictions, ETF continues to operate effectively and staff can be contacted via email by clicking here or phone 0131 475 2509 and they will do their best to help you.
The Albion Trust continues to liaise with the Scottish Government, other Norton Park service users and ourselves. We will let you know when it is safe for Norton Park to re-open. In the meantime, stay safe and take care.

Federation Meeting
The role and importance of Social Housing Today
On Wednesday 17th March 2021, ETF members were delighted to find out more about City of Edinburgh Council's (CEC's) housebuilding programme and Shelter Scotland's Social Housing campaign 'Build Scotland's Future'.
Tricia Hill, CEC's Development and Regeneration Manager spoke about CEC's progress to date as well as future plans. Maddie Lou Barink, Community Organiser, Shelter Scotland advised on the Build Scotland's Future Campaign.
ETF's Convenor Betty Stone commented, "We would like to thank Tricia and Maddie for attending our members' meeting. It was great to hear about CEC's housebuilding programme, which is both very ambitious and exciting. We at ETF have already signed the Shelter petition and we would like to encourage as many people and organisations as possible to do likewise."
