An update on Lambton, Londonderry and Lumley Towers (3Ls)

We want to keep you informed about work taking place across the city and to reassure you about what this means for your home.

As previously shared, we are continuing to support customers living in Lambton, Londonderry and Lumley Towers (3Ls) to move into new homes ahead of the planned demolition of those buildings. This is progressing well, and more than 80% of customers in these buildings have now moved out, or found a new home and will be moving in the coming months.


This work is specific to the 3Ls only and does not affect any other high-rise building.

Contractors will be carrying out site inspections in the 3Ls in the coming weeks, as part of the preparation work, ahead of the planned demolition. These inspections will be carefully managed, and we will do everything we can to keep any disruption to customers in these buildings to a minimum.
