Read more about how we met our aims in our first Collaborate, the Engagement Maximiser, here.
“Excellent. The project was a success for (us) as it enabled us to achieve our outcomes within timeframe and budget, using a method that is innovative, unique and collaborative”
The response to our launch of the second Collaborate is Resident Engagement in Building Safety last week has been overwhelming and we are nearly oversubscribed. We know that the Building Safety Regulator will focus on resident engagement, we also know that the RSH will focus on health and safety, some landlords are progressing well and some have much more work to do.
The project includes;
- Understanding the context and background to the Building Safety Act with regard to the expectations for effective resident engagement
- Providing a safe environment for you to learn and develop your ideas in a collaborative and collegiate way
- Resulting in you leaving with a tangible action plan based on your own contextual evidence, enabling you to deliver evidence-based engagement with residents living in high-risk buildings
Seven workshops, over a few months with four places for each organisation that signs up, doesn’t have to be the same people either offering real flexibility. After the programme a report will be published featuring the collaborating organisations.
