ALMO, Rochdale Boroughwide Housing (RBH) has recently appointed 45 year old Fida Hussain as an External Funding Officer.

“Fida will maximise all possible opportunities to generate income from external funding,” said Clare Tostevin Head of New Business and Regeneration for RBH. “He will focus on identifying opportunities to support wider regeneration for the benefits of our tenants and neighbourhoods.”

Fida has considerable experience in his field and has worked for 25 years in a variety of community development and project roles. “I see this as a wonderful new challenge, particularly in these harsh economic times,” he said.

Already the appointment of Fida as an External Funding Officer has proved a good move for RBH. He has secured over £48,000 from a variety of funding sources including the Aspiration Fund, BT, Bit Lottery and Jobcentre Plus.
