30 March 2009Christine Searle, Chair of the Poplar Board, was named as one of the 25 most influential people in housing over the last quarter of a century.
Christine, who lives on the Lincoln Estate, was put forward for this prestigious accolade by a panel of experts for the 25th birthday issue of Inside Housing magazine.

Steve Stride, Chief Executive, remembers meeting her when stock transfer was suggested in the mid-1990s. "My impression was that I didn't want to fall out with this woman. But she was open to stock transfer because she saw it as a way forward.Congratulations on this honour from all at Poplar HARCA!"
