New Members and Updates November 2024
Monday 25th of November 2024
This month we welcomed two new members to Team Tpas, Solihull Care HA, and Kingston Council. Welcome aboard!
In November, Tpas members have enjoyed discounts on our most popular training courses, on topics like Scrutiny, Culture, and Engagement. This month we also had one of our LA/ALMO Online Staff Meet-ups, and a free ‘Getting the most out of your membership’.
Kam Birdie, Communications and Engagement Specialist at Kingston Council, told us why they joined Tpas:
We joined Tpas so that we could offer additional training and support to make sure that residents are able to make a difference through mentoring, access to independent advice.
What are you hoping to get from your membership?
Shared knowledge, experiences and best practice with other professional members and for residents to then take the opportunity of using this platform as another tool, which is easily accessible and meets the circumstances and preferences of residents
What are you most looking forward to with your membership?
Networking, hearing the latest engagement, training and partnership opportunities for both us as a housing provider, and for our residents.
Any other comments you would like to add
We continue to tailor our services to the needs of residents who require additional help, support adaptations, digital enablement, employment and training opportunities. By using Tpas, we can support more residents and encourage them to actively be involved in helping shape services based on the needs of the residents.
Coming up for Tpas Members:
Tpas Members continue to receive discounts on all our upcoming training and events.
Our newly renamed National Engagement Professionals Conference 2025 is taking place in Nottingham in March. Tickets can be found on our website.
We also have a whole host of free events and webinars for our members coming up in 2025. As well as our usual Scrutiny Club, and LA/ALMO meetups, we also have an exclusively-for-members webinar with the Housing Ombudsman on their Annual Complaints Review on 15th January. Details can be found here.
