Housing providers are facing a storm of costs pressures in 2023 including the 7% rent cap, high inflation and rising interest rates, plus pressure to accommodate ever more expenditure in your business plan (EPCC, CNZ, building and fire safety, enhanced planned maintenance and responsive repairs, estates regeneration, IT connectivity and data systems etc). Budgets are increasingly strained, many housing providers are forecasting minimal interest cover this year and the consequential risk of breaching a financial covenant is much sharper. Some housing providers are starting to look down the road and question their medium and long-term viability.
In this session, Anthony Collins and 2Tix will discuss how housing providers can face these challenges and the strategic responses they should be considering to prepare for a stronger and compliant future, and how the sector can collaborate to better support its members in these key areas.
We are delighted to be joined in our discussions by Donna Johnson, chief executive of Willow Tree Housing Partnership, who will talk about their unique, creative and ultimately highly successful approach to collaboration for a sustainable future.
There will be plenty of opportunities to question Donna along with the rest of our expert speakers on the subjects touched on in our discussions.
Who should attend?
Chief executives, chairs, finance directors and other executives particularly of smaller and medium-sized housing providers and larger organisations who are interested in looking at opportunities to support their smaller counterparts.
