Tpas Goes to Sweden
Tuesday 30th of April 2024
Tpas is honoured to have been invited on a special study tour to Stockholm in May, held by the National Housing Maintenance Forum.
Policy and Insight Manager Caritas Charles will be the lucky Tpas staff member going along to help give an engagement perspective to some of the findings. Though it looks set to be a fun trip, Caritas will be working hard writing blogs and completing a series of videos that we hope to show in future ezines. The blogs and vlogs will hopefully give you a flavour of what’s covered in the study trip.
