The BIG Conference: Big Society, Bigger Partnerships, Big Potential
16 September 2010
The Big Society and the encouragement for local communities to get more involved and to take ownership of local decision making is high on the Government’s agenda. Health, housing and social care organisations have, over the years, encouraged vulnerable and marginalised people to be part of and contribute to their local communities. However, their voice remains muted and the language of needs and deficiencies persist rather than the language of skills and talents. The ROCC 2010 conference brings speakers and organisations that have something to say on the matter. Government advisors, challenging leaders, and inspiring communities and organisations will be there on the day.
NHF annual conference and social housing exhibition
22- 24 September, Birmingham
This year’s programme will examine the threats and opportunities the new administration will pose to housing associations, where housing will fit into their overall priorities and how we can ensure our voice continues to be heard loud and clear by coalition ministers.
