Bbc Documentary About Harold Hill

A Memory of Romford.

The BBC is looking at the day that Margaret Thatcher introduced the 'Right to Buy' scheme, allowing people in council houses to buy their own homes.

The film will look at the benefits for several million people who became homeowners, and the difficulty for councils in replacing the stock of social housing.

We have BBC footage of the time when Margaret Thatcher visited Harold Hill when the scheme started.

We're trying to track down people from Harold Hill who bought their council home using the scheme in the 80s and find out how it affected their life.

If this applies to you, please could you tell us a bit about your experiences?

Or if you know anyone else who bought a house in Harold Hill in the 80s, please do let us know.

Below is our e-mail and telephone number.

Thank you for reading.
