Let me first introduce myself, if you don’t already know who I am, my name is Andy Spalding (Ex WO2 RGJ), I am the Property Manager for all Regt properties throughout the Regt, but I’m also the Estate Manager for Green Jacket Close here in Winchester, which I want to talk about.
A lot of people within the Regt or antecedent Regiments, don’t or haven’t even heard about Green Jacket Close and I’m hoping that you will pass this information down to your association and anyone else that you feel will benefit from knowing about it, and letting them to apply to live there if they wish.
There is a waiting list for Green Jacket Close and is prioritized by the needs of the person who is on the list. The list is controlled by me, but the Regt trustee makes the final decision on who would get the property once it becomes available.
