Mr Rodwell went to see how Josephine Rudd and her neighbours Pauline Branch and Brenda Lowe were settling in to their new homes in Burbridge Close, Dagenham.Josephine, who moved into her new bungalow last month, said: “It’s fantastic here. This place reminds me of an apartment in Greece I went to on holiday.“It’s been great making new friends with my neighbours too – we get on so well.”Councillor Darren Rodwell said: “It’s great to meet Josephine, Pauline and Brenda and nice to see them settling in so well.“I am very impressed with the design of the bungalows and the Close reminds me of an old-style east end street. “The way the tenants can open their doors to chat to their neighbours opposite is fantastic. I think it helps creates a really neighbourly environment.”
Josephine and her neighbours moved in to their new homes through Barking and Dagenham Council’s home swap scheme which enables older and disabled residents to move to purpose-built homes, while releasing larger, under-occupied housing for local families." Show less
