Government Business’ Post

Join us for a pivotal webinar, "Managing Maintenance in Council-Controlled Buildings," as we spark conversation on urgent issues brought to light by the tragic death of Awaab Ishak. The report on Rochdale Boroughwide Housing (RBH) paints a picture of neglect and disregard for residents' safety. In response, the government is acting with Awaab's Law, which aims to hold social housing landlords accountable for providing safe and habitable living conditions. As of yesterday, new regulations have come into effect for landlords which aim to deliver decent homes for residents. Landlords that fail to comply face penalties including change in management and fines.   Sponsored by Cornerstone, this webinar brings together the innovative minds of Dr Hector Altamirano-Medina (UCL), Richard Blakeway (Housing Ombudsman), Douglas Booker (National Air Quality testing services/ Lancaster University environment Centre) and David Bly (Cornerstone Management Services) By attending, you'll gain valuable insights into best practices for maintenance and learn proactive strategies to address issues like damp and mould before they escalate. Don't miss this critical opportunity to be part of the solution. Register now to secure your free place and join us in shaping a safer and healthier future for all residents. Together, we can make a meaningful difference and ensure that no one suffers due to inadequate housing conditions. Sign up today.
