We’ve had a fantastic week at events like the @CHCymru Annual Conference in Cardiff Bay! A special highlight was celebrating our Partnerships Manager, Carol Harris, graduating from The Pathway to Board project. At Stori, we’re proud to support personal and professional growth!

It was exciting to be a Keynote Speaker at @CHCymru's annual conference, where I discussed how #GenAI can help provide more cost-effective services for tenants, while also requiring meaningful efforts to address challenges like hallucinations, #deepfakes, and ‘AI sludge.’

We were delighted to see Roda Husein receiving her Pathway to Board qualification from @JBryantWales at the @CHCymru Conference this week.
Roda did her Pathway to Board placement on the Pobl Board (Apr – Nov 2024) and was mentored by Lucy Asquith (NED).

"Compasionate leadership is about every decision we make, and the effects of those decisions on the people we support and work alongside. In the current climate, continuing to be compassionate can be an act of protest." - @EwanHilton at #CHCAnnual24 today
@CHCymru
"We’re working within systems that are often absent of compassion so in some ways this feels like a protest," @weareplatfform's @EwanHilton tells #CHCAnnual24
"We can’t talk about being compassionate, & about social justice if we’re not prepared to tell our own stories," he adds

Looking forward to speaking at the @CHCymru #CHCAnnual24
We'll be taking to the main stage to talk about how the housing sector can get ready for the #WelshLanguageStandards
Calling all #CHCAnnual24 delegates!
Have you spoken to our exhibitors? Each one was specially chosen because they appreciate the value of working with Wales’s social housing sector.
Make sure you say hello 👋
Our response to new @SeneddWales committee report on Welsh social housing supply
“The inquiry process, and this report, have been an important moment for us to emphasise the importance of social homes in addressing the housing crisis...
🧵 (1/4)
“Housing associations want to continue delivering the quality homes Wales needs at pace. So we now need a long-term, joined-up strategic approach for housing - and a funding environment that reflects these strategic priorities.
“We are facing a big challenge here, which can’t be dealt with by one simple change. That’s why housing associations are poised to share their expertise, and play an important role in pulling Wales out of the crisis.” - @HayleyEastmen
Community Housing Cymru retweeted
"We believe that creating new social housing, at pace, is key. To meet 20% social housing, Welsh Gov. should plan beyond Senedd term limits"
- John Griffiths MS, Chair of Senedd Local Gov and Housing Committee, at @CHCymru #CHCAnnual24
