Creating Homes 2013

Social landlords in Wales deliver more than houses. They are at the heart of addressing serious issues of inequality, poverty and exclusion.

Housing organisations achieve most when they focus on the social impact they create, engage with service users and proactively embrace the diverse needs of communities they serve.

This new annual event is about moving beyond compliance. It will provide a platform for debate and dialogue on the future direction of equality, diversity and housing. It is also an opportunity to exchange ideas and gain knowledge on practical solutions to common issues.

This event will feature:

• Plenary sessions with leading experts discussing key issues related to housing and equality including regeneration, poverty, disability, immigration and more.

• Workshops showcasing practical ideas on how to proactively embrace equality and diversity.

Speakers include:

• Carl Sargeant – Minister for Housing and Regeneration (invited)
• Dr. Victoria Winckler – Director, Bevan Foundation
• Prof. Dave Adamson – Chief Executive, Centre for Regeneration Excellence Wales (tbc)
• Representatives from WG Regulation Team, WLGA and EHRC – (tbc)
