In this Social Housing Round Table session, hosted by Elaine Middleton, we were joined by Paul Berney from TSA to discuss how landlords and providers can prepare for the UK’s digital switchover.

The conversation explored what the switchover means in practice, the risks of inaction, and the potential impact on residents who rely on technology-enabled care and telecare services. Paul shared clear insight into timelines, responsibilities and the importance of planning early, while emphasising the need to keep residents at the centre of decision-making.

This session is essential viewing for housing professionals who want to understand their role in the digital switchover, reduce risk and ensure residents remain safe, supported and informed.

In this Social Housing Round Table session, hosted by Elaine Middleton, we were joined by Graham Wellard from CMSG to explore the realities behind anti-social behaviour data.

The conversation unpacked how ASB is recorded, interpreted and often misunderstood, highlighting the gaps between reported data, lived experience and frontline practice. Graham challenged assumptions around what the numbers really tell us, the risks of relying on data without context, and the importance of professional judgement in decision-making.

This session offers valuable insight for housing professionals seeking to better understand ASB trends, improve responses and ensure data is used as a tool to support people, not obscure the reality on the ground.
