Social Housing Annual Conference 2023 | Social Housing | 29 November 2023 | Northern Trust Ltd, 155 Bishopsgate, London EC2M 3TQ, UK

This event is the sector's leading one-day event for senior housing leaders which delivers the latest insight and best practice in strategic business planning. At a time of huge political uncertainty and a fluctuating economic outlook, the Social Housing Annual Conference looked, through the finance lens, at the issues of key importance to registered providers. The sector remains under huge pressure to deliver decent, safe, quality housing whether through investment in stock or new development; meet net zero commitments; balance its books through effective business and financial planning; and lead a diverse workforce which reflects the communities they serve. The conference provided multiple view points and case studies from a variety of organizations from across the housing spectrum including leaders in business, local and central government.
