Sooner or later Ministers are going to have to face reality. There is no time to push through the mountains legislation before 29 March, particularly with no support for May's deal.

The clearest way out of this parliamentary gridlock is a #PeoplesVote.

Our intergenerational lead, Michael Spellman talks about how activities, like the Channel 4 show, that bring the old and young together, make our retirement communities 'ageless spaces' where different generations can benefit each other... https://t.co/w9ZYaBkHAH #OPHF4YO

Who will be the next Conservative Party leader? @SeeMediaPR's @JenniferRiddell speculates...

Good to see recognition being given to @ExtraCareOrgUk at Stoke Gifford- its full of technological advancements to help residents & genuine space for communal facilities. Was always interesting attending @gtpartnerships mtgs there co @insidehousing https://t.co/sA41O0W482

[Stuart Macdonald @smacdonaldSM]

Really enjoyed @Channel4 series 'Old People's Home for Four-Year-Olds'. Residents of @ExtraCareOrgUk Lark Hill retirement village in Nottingham were at the heart of the programme - here's why the housing association chose to let the cameras in https://t.co/gg1pxhLwOp #ukhousing

[ExtraCare @ExtraCareOrgUk]

Our Head of Marketing and Communications, Richard Tower, explains why we allowed Channel 4 to film in one of our retirement villages for #OldPeoplesHome4YO which brought pre-school children and older people together.

Just published: my latest @SeeMediaPR blog on what the London mayor should have said to Radio Four's Today programme on knife crime, and why a block of flats built by Southwark Council is my favourite https://t.co/dodtUpu3Tq #ukhousing

Here's my @SeeMediaPR take on how the comms approach by @MetTVH led residents to back London's first estate regen ballot https://t.co/R0Yd19cWbj #ukhousing

What a beautiful frosty morning to be travelling through the Chilterns on my way to the @insidehousing #CommsConference. Looking forward to seeing some @SeeMediaPR clients and doing some learning!!

Hearing from Ben Schofield about how Bengali community radio tackled important issues in a place the community cared about - putting front line staff on the show displayed the human side of housing #IHcomms18

Reenforcing what we've heard all through the day @ccyogi says:
- Nothing beats Face to Face
- People are ♥️ of what we do

When we talk about 'getting on the property ladder', we have to think about the stigma that creates for the rest of our customers, says Tom Woodman @WeAreLiveWest #IHcomms18

[Dawn McGuigan @Dawn_McG]

Really important point. Getting on the property ladder and 'ownership' shouldn't be the only aspirations when it comes to having a place to live. #IHcomms18 #renting #housing

[Carly Grainger @GraingerCarly]

ALWAYS NEWS for @insidehousing, says @PeteApps #IHcomms18:
Bonds/financing deals/annual reports (get your FD on the phone)
Regulatory judgements (have a response lined up)
Mergers
Chief exec departures
Things that feed into a wider news analysis
Fire safety

[Trident Group @tridentgrp]

“Both @persiluk and @CR_UK used negatives and turned them into positive campaigns that have resonated with millions. Social housing currently has a negative stigma, its time to find its positive storytelling too” - @Zagology @RoosterPunks #IHcomms18

[Faye Foster @FayeSaville]

Great day #IHcomms18 so far, lots of interesting sessions! Great to hear different perspectives & reinforce what we know we do well! #comms #housingsector

[Sue Montgomery @suejmontgomery]

From lobbying to engaging
From facts to feelings
From events to experiences
From messaging to stories

We need to get emotional in our story telling

Public relations market is experiencing growth in social media (digital / multichannel); community management & CSR / reputation. Tech & healthcare are top 2 growth sectors. #PRFacts

I try to answer the problem they might have, rather than telling them what I want them to hear, says Carol Jones @HydeHousing, talking about engaging with MPs #IHcomms18
