While the debate continues as to whether the UK economy is coming out of recession, many sectors (including local government) are facing cuts which impact on budgets, staffing and service delivery. All organisations will need to embrace these testing challenges in order to deliver. Also, with changes to regulation and rent benchmarking as a result of the Essex Review, the social housing sector will need to achieve more through smarter management, leaner systems and more effective workforces.
This conference will highlight the challenges that all housing associations and community mutuals face over the coming year, celebrate sporting and organisational achievements and pick out key factors to their success that delegates can take away. It will also provide a fantastic opportunity to meet up with colleagues, to take a look at the exhibition which has the latest companies and suppliers present, and to take a step back to challenge what you are currently doing.
Oh… and there’s the usual mix of entertainment, socialising, wonderful food and the good `ol Metropole hotel thrown in for good measure! Get your bookings in now to guarantee your place at the conference and at the Met!
