Good news for social housing workers

The Front LinerDo you work in the social housing sector?  For example are you

  • a local authority advisor or housing worker, or
  • working for a social housing association, or maybe
  • an advisor working for a not for profit organisation?

If so, I have some good news for you.

Face to face training

The training company I run with Ben Reeve Lewis now has a face to face training service.

So if you want someone to come out to your office to give training to your staff – we not only have a large selection of courses from Ben, We can also now offer training from eligibility expert Sue Lukes.

The “Talking Shop” blog

The second bit of news is that we have started up a new blog. This isn’t a news / case law blog – there is no need as Nearly Legal does this job superbly.   What our blog does is answer questions (within reason).

Its on the Frontliner website (the Frontliner is the newsletter Ben and I have been writing for the past two years – for housing workers ‘on the front line’) and it is called the ‘Talking Shop‘ blog.

At the moment we have a question about a council employees housing and three questions answered by Sue, if  you want to take a look. If you don’t agree with our answers feel free to comment.

You will find the new blog >> here.
