As housing professionals in the South East, attending Brighton housing events are a brilliant way to further your professional development. You’ll get the chance to network with others in the sector, learn from the experts, and discuss the issues in your region that matter to you. 

Why does attending matter? 

It’s important to support housing conferences in Brighton as they help to highlight regional issues from the South East. On top of giving you the opportunity to discuss key topics that affect the entirety of the UK, regional events are helpful for zooming in on the most important issues in your area. There’s nowhere better to bring up local successes and concerns as you’ll connect with likeminded people who understand where you’re coming from. 

Build your local network 

As a housing professional, it’s always helpful to make connections in your area, especially with those working in the same sector. You never know when you might need to ask for support from those around you to complete projects or to simply offer advice, and housing conferences in the South East are the best way to make these initial connections. Networking can be daunting, but our events make it easy by getting you in the same room as other professionals and leaders in the industry. 

Sharing your values 

CIH’s professional standards reflect the values housing professionals uphold in their day-to-day work. Attending CIH events in Brighton can help you discover new ways of showing up as your best self at work, meeting others who can share their professional wins and challenges. It’s important to stay on top of your continuing professional development (CPD), and we’re committed to helping you with this through our events.

Tackle the important issues 

If we’ve not convinced you that the Brighton housing conference is worth it yet, just think about the local issues you feel most passionately about. Whether you’d like to discuss housing developments, new homes in the area, housing shortages, or something else entirely — you’ll have the opportunity to do this at one of our events. As someone working in the sector, your views on how it needs to improve shouldn’t go unheard.
