This week’s Social Housing Round Table welcomed Dr. Eve Blezard from the Chartered Institute of Housing for an important discussion on the implementation of Awaab’s Law.
Eve outlined what housing providers can expect as the sector moves from consultation to delivery, the moral imperative driving change and the operational and financial hurdles providers must overcome.
The conversation didn’t shy away from the realities: balancing regulation with real world challenges, ensuring tenant safety and the urgent need for better communication across organisations.
Essential listening for anyone committed to raising housing standards and doing right by tenants.
Big thank you to Case Management Solutions Group Ltd and Alertacall Ltd for sponsoring The Social Housing Round Table, without them, none of this would be possible.
