Incommunities hosts Australian boss on Housing Day

Ben Moore Australian visitor to Incommunities

A top housing executive is finding out more about UK social housing as part of a fact-finding visit to Incommunities.

Ben Moore, Head of Housing at AnglicareSA in South Australia, is meeting senior figures at the West Yorkshire-based group to learn more about its key priorities including its new build programme, neighbourhood management, employment services and its work supporting residents affected by welfare benefit reforms.

The four-day visit is being hosted by Incommunities Group Chief Executive, Geraldine Howley and coincides with national Housing Day (10th October) , a 24-hour social media event showcasing the positive impact of social housing on millions of tenants.

Geraldine Howley said: "We are delighted to welcome Ben and share with him our approach to delivering housing services and also hear about the Australian model.

"It’s nice to see Ben’s visit coincide with Housing Day as social housing moves up the political agenda with consultation underway into the Social Housing Green Paper. The day is a real opportunity to highlight the excellent work carried out by landlords and residents."

Ben Moore said: "I’m looking forward to meeting my counterparts from one of UK’s leading housing associations.

"We may be thousands of miles apart but we face similar challenges and it will be great to share ideas and experiences."
