Calling All Housing Champions!

In today's rapidly changing world, housing has emerged as one of the most critical issues affecting communities.

Housing Champions are individuals who actively engage with their communities to help resolve housing issues and improve living conditions for all. They offer best practice advice and guidance, assisting residents in navigating complex housing systems and regulations. Their role involves amplifying the voices of others, assisting in lodging complaints, and advocating for fair treatment and accountability.

While some Housing Champions may work within the housing sector, many are ordinary individuals who have taken it upon themselves to support their neighbours and contribute to a stronger, more inclusive housing community.

Are You a Housing Champion?

Are you someone who believes in the power of community and the importance of fair and equitable housing? Do you actively support your neighbours and fellow residents in resolving housing issues? If so, then you might just be a Housing Champion!

Have you provided advice and guidance to those facing housing challenges? Have you raised awareness about housing issues through social media or other platforms? Have you stood up to housing associations or advocated for policy changes that benefit all residents?

If your answer is a “yes" to any of the above then we invite you to join our community of Housing Champions. Together, we can create a powerful network of individuals dedicated to making a difference in the lives of our neighbours and fellow residents. Share your experiences, knowledge, and ideas. Connect with like-minded individuals. Collaborate to find innovative solutions.

No Housing Champion is an island. Connect with other advocates, community organisations, and housing support groups to share experiences, insights, and resources. Together, we can pool our knowledge and strengthen our collective impact. Consider hosting local meet ups, workshops, or online forums where Housing Champions can come together to learn from each other and brainstorm solutions.

To sign up for the free, open-to-all virtual meeting on Wednesday, 5th July 2023, at 18:30, please send an email to support@housingsector.co.uk. You'll secure your spot and receive all the necessary details to join the meeting. We encourage you to take this opportunity to connect with fellow Housing Champions, share your insights, and contribute to the discussion on creating positive change in the housing sector. We look forward to your participation and the valuable perspectives you'll bring to the meeting.

Please share this event with your groups, contacts, and anyone who may be interested in joining the discussion. The more diverse perspectives and experiences we gather, the stronger our collective movement becomes.

Additionally, if you work within the housing sector and are keen to actively support and join our growing movement, we wholeheartedly welcome you participation.

Together, we can make a significant impact by uniting Housing Champions and stakeholders from all backgrounds. Let's harness the power of collaboration and create lasting change in the housing sector. Thank you for your support in spreading the message far and wide.

Why Bother?

Housing Champions have a unique opportunity to influence policy decisions and shape the practices of housing associations, local authorities, and other relevant stakeholders. By speaking up and engaging in constructive dialogue, we can ensure that housing issues are addressed at the root cause. Attend local council meetings, participate in public consultations, and collaborate with housing organisations to advocate for policies that promote affordable, safe, and sustainable housing options.

In a world where housing challenges persist, Housing Champions can play a crucial role in driving positive change. By uniting our efforts, sharing knowledge, and advocating for fair and equitable housing, we can create communities where everyone has access to safe, affordable homes.

By listening to the concerns and experiences of fellow residents, offering empathy, support, and guidance, as Housing Champions, we have the power to uplift others and inspire them to take action.

Let us stand together, shoulder to shoulder, as Housing Champions, and build a future where housing is a fundamental right and not a privilege. Join us in this journey of empowerment and unite as Housing Champions today!
