MERGER WITH ADACTUS HOUSING ASSOCIATION LIMITED
The Board of Chorley Community Housing Limited (CCH) has decided to consult its tenants and leaseholders about a proposed merger with Adactus Housing Association Limited. Both housing associations are members of the Jigsaw Homes Group. The merger is part of a bigger proposal to bring together four members of the Jigsaw Homes Group Limited – Adactus Housing Association Limited, Beech Housing Association Limited, Chorley Community Housing Limited and Aksa Housing Association – to be called Jigsaw Homes North.
The legal mechanism for merging CCH with Adactus is known as a ‘transfer of engagements’. The merger is subject to obtaining the necessary legal and other consents, including considering the views of tenants and leaseholders. We would like to hear your views on the proposal.
Although CCH and Adactus are planning to merge, your rights as a tenant or leaseholder are unaffected by the merger:
- your tenancy or lease is not affected;
- your rent will not change;
- you will continue to receive services from us in the same way that you do now.
