Eastlight Community Homes’ Post

At Eastlight, we believe in creating opportunities that make a difference 👇 That’s why we’re proud to introduce Wendy, our first participant in the new Dale Butcher Resident Work Experience Programme. As a resident for more than 30 years, Wendy is gaining hands-on insight into the housing sector, supported by experienced professionals. This includes Development Manager, Debbie Mitchell, and Asset Manager, Charlie Edgar MCIOB, and the programme’s namesake, Dale Butcher, our former Vice-chair of Board. The programme also provides Chartered Institute of Housing (CIH) training, offering valuable skills and an industry-recognised qualification. An excited Wendy said: "I have never done anything like this before, but I think it’s a brilliant opportunity. “All being well, it will be great to gain a new professional qualification, have a wealth of practical knowledge, and to find out if I might like to pursue a new career in housing and construction. “I think it’s such a good thing that Eastlight want to involve residents in as many directions as possible, with regards to how they operate and their aspirations in housing people.” #community #workexperience #development #sustainability
