Sponsorship and exhibiting opportunities

Network with over 250 delegates to build brand awareness and generate sales leads.

The coronavirus pandemic has significantly impacted every board in the housing association sector. Financial strains, resident engagement, governance and compliance, and new ways of working − the list of challenges seems endless.

Beyond the obvious short-term changes to accommodate new working practices, there has been a clear shift in thinking and priorities that will have a lasting impact on the way your board functions and organisation is governed. This is the time for boards to transform, embrace change, listen to others, and decide what to keep and what to lose.

Board members and chairs from across the sector will gather at our Board Excellence in Housing event to unpick these issues and reconsider what the future of social housing looks like.
