We have been asked to confirm the role of a Tribunal-appointed Manager, following some lessees confusing the role of the Manager with that of a managing agent.  

A Manager appointed by the courts under s.24 of the Landlord and Tenants Act 1987 takes over the Landlord's right to manage the buildings.  They are directed by the Tribunal and act independently of the landlord and leaseholders.  LEASE, the government agency responsible for advising leaseholders, describes the role of a Manager here.  

We have an author in our midst: Canary Riverside resident Mark Hebwood has written Happiness Rules, described as 'self-help for the thoughtful reader'.
