The Centre one year on: Where have we come from and where are we going?
By Billy Holt, Housing Intern, HACT
Our first year at the Centre for Excellence in Community Investment has been a busy one. We’ve published numerous blogs on a range of topics from financial stability to sport. As the Centre celebrates its first birthday, we take a look at some of the highlights:
One year on: Financial stability
One year on: Local issues, local solutions
One year on: Developing insight
The landscape of community investment is always shifting, affected by the winds of political, social and economic change, technological advances and funding priorities. As we reflect on our first year in operation, we want to know what opportunities and challenges you’d like to see discussed going forward.
Along with a series of blog posts today, we’ll be running a quick online poll on our Twitter at @Centre4CI. By sharing ideas we can ensure that the Centre remains relevant, focussed and attentive to upcoming challenges in social housing. So join in the conversation!
