We are delighted to be sponsoring and speaking at The Housing Community Summit at Liverpool’s ACC from 9-10 September.
Sponsoring the Housing Management and Engagement Theatre, we’ll also have several speaking slots and sessions chaired by ARK Directors including Helen Scurr FCIH, Chris Seeley,
A ground-breaking collaboration between the National Housing Federation (NHF) and the Chartered Institute of Housing (CIH), The Housing Community Summit is not just a conference; it’s a forum for debating and actively shaping the future of social housing.
Combining the expertise and influence of the NHF and CIH, the Housing Community Summit will be packed with high-quality content taking place in two main areas:
Housing in Focus
Housing in Focus will be a ticketed space dedicated to thought leadership from top political speakers and housing’s senior leaders, all with a focus on business strategy and delivering social purpose. Your Housing in Focus ticket will give you access to all areas of The Housing Community Summit, including Housing in Practice, networking events and the exhibition floor.
Housing in Practice
All CIH and NHF members get free access to Housing in Practice, a bespoke programme of sessions tailored for housing professionals taking place on The Housing Community Summit’s exhibition floor. Topics will range from property management and customer engagement, to data and operations, guaranteed to give you new insights for your role in housing.
