Newport Housing Trust - Annual Residents Conference 2008

Annual Residents Conference 2008

This year’s annual residents conference, held on 30th January at the Newport Rugby Club, was again a huge success. We saw the return of exhibitors, and also some new ones which made the day more enjoyable for all.

We saw attendance from the Red Cross medical loans, NHS Direct Wales & the Ambulance service, Haven Mobility Services, the pensions service, Age Concern, the Gwent Bobby Scheme, NCC Emergency control centre and PC Mobility services.

Residents listening to a presentation on your annual rents and service charges

We also had attendance from around 50 residents, all of which gave very good feedback about the event.

Phil Toms and Clare Spear gave a presentation on rents and service charges for the year 2008—2009, which those residents who were not able to attend will have had information in the post about.

Our CSAs in action

Our Annual Residents Conference is held in January of every year, and this was the 7th we have had. Each year we see more and more new faces, so if you are a new tenant in one of our bungalows then please come along next year ! We also have many other opportunities to meet with the Trust and have your say, some of which are detailed in this newsletter, so look out for them and come along and join us !!
