This webinar looks to address these challenges by fostering stronger partnerships between local authorities and housing associations.

Social housing allocations remain one of the most contentious and complex areas of housing policy. With over 1.3 million households on waiting lists, housing associations face mounting pressures to balance fairness and compliance amid severe supply constraints.

Join this webinar, as we explore practical strategies to overcome barriers, reduce delays, and improve efficiency in social housing allocations. Discover how collaborative approaches can help deliver more homes to those who need them most.

Speakers:

  • Cllr Ahsan Khan, Deputy Leader and Cabinet Member for Housing and Regeneration, Waltham Forest, Local Government Association
  • Martyn Hale, Operations Director, Trent and Dove Housing
  • Jack Lee, Director of Strategy and Policy, Guinness Partnership
  • Nicola Turner, Assistant Director - Individuals and Families, South Norfolk and Broadland District Councils
