Huge well done to the RCOTSS-Housing team at this years Healthy Housing Awards. A great way to end the year 🥳🙌

@OTKateSheehan @UKFCOT @RCOT_Housing Congratulations to the whole team past. Let’s see if RCOT can replicate even a fraction of the passion and knowledge of this section before breaking it up for their new communities vision. Wish them and members needing skills and inspiration regarding housing and adaptations luck

[Kate Sheehan OT @OTKateSheehan]

@UKFCOT @RCOT_Housing It is so sad, all those powerful relationships we built with government lost forever

[Moira Bayne @CEOHousingOps]

@jillpritchard5 @RCOT_PolicySco @PublicAffRCOT @RCOTScotEastern Well done !👍

Anyone in a leadership position should read this

[Helen Bevan @HelenBevan]

There's a growing appreciation of the importance of trust for team leadership & effective change. As leaders we are signal generators - our smallest actions & interactions can build or destroy trust. I like this piece on powerful, practical ways we can build trust with our team members (& partners, peers & collaborators): https://t.co/6lVx0PSnTI. By Pinnacle Project via @Medium

@jillpritchard5 @davidowen @RCOT_PolicySco @RCOT_Housing @ACampbellCIHCM @PublicAffRCOT @vikki_mccall @sfha_hq Have a fabulous time

[Kate Sheehan OT @OTKateSheehan]

@UKFCOT @theRCOT Gosh those numbers are awful. I know AGMs are not overly thrilling but it’s the only way to question and debate openly

[Kate Sheehan OT @OTKateSheehan]

@UKFCOT @theRCOT Really valuable thread Irene, I am particularly concerned about the lack of membership engagement in the AGM, when part of conference there was definitely more debate.
There was engagement with SS however I think the housing group felt closure was a fait de complis

[AKW @AKW_One]

Earlier this year, Nick Parsons took on a new role as AKW Holdings Group Executive Chairman and we welcomed our new Group CEO, Stephen Murphy.

Stephen has spent this year getting to know everyone and we're all excited to see what 2025 brings!
