This year, we celebrated Scottish Housing Day with a special event for tenants at Methil Brae, Methil, embracing the importance of good neighbours and strong communities.

Scottish Housing Day is a national celebration of the vital role housing plays in our lives and communities. Each year, it offers a chance to recognise the positive impact of quality housing and the people who help make neighbourhoods thrive. This year, the focus on being neighbourly felt particularly relevant to the tenants of Methil Brae.

Over recent months, the residents there have gone above and beyond to clean up and improve their street, creating a nicer environment for all. Their efforts have created a real sense of pride and community spirit, making Methil Brae a shining example of this year’s theme in action.

To celebrate both Scottish Housing Day and the achievements of local tenants, we hosted a small community event. The kids enjoyed some ice cream and face painting and neighbours came together to join in the festivities.

With the sun shining and residents out in numbers, the event captured the very essence of Scottish Housing Day, celebrating not just housing, but the people and connections that turn houses into homes and streets into communities.
