independent board members
ANDREW ALMOND BELL (Vice-Chair)
Andrew was Shoreline’s first chair and successfully saw the company through the tenant ballot in favour of transfer, pre-transfer negotiations with North East Lincolnshire Council and subsequently the creation of the company in March 2005.
Andrew is locally born and bred and is employed as a manager at one of the chemical companies on the Humber Bank. He has gained his Masters Degree in Business Administration and he likes to concentrate on providing ‘Best value’ services for the tenants, employees and Shoreline Housing Partnership as a whole.
Andrew was the first person to qualify from the National Housing Federation’s National Chairs Mentoring programme and now mentors Chairs of organisations going through the stock transfer process.
Andrew uses his extensive practical knowledge in operational management to provide a better service delivery across the whole range of housing services.
DAVID ROBINSON
David spent over 30 years in the insurance industry, spending 28 happy years with the Prudential. For the last 18 years of his service with the Prudential, David was part of their management team in Grimsby.
At the age of 50, David embarked on a new direction when he asked for early retirement in order to have the rime to set up a local charity based in the Grimsby and Cleethorpes area. The charity, CARE, has become a major player in helping the needy and homeless people through it’s charity shop and Care Rent scheme. Although retired from general management of CARE, David is still employed by them two days a week as a Tenant Support worker.
Having a first hand understanding of some of the problems associated with obtaining and maintaining a tenancy awaked David’s interest in the formation of Shoreline. David became a Board member in October 2003. His special interests are in Human Resource and Audit and Risk procedures.
