TPAS Cymru and Welsh Tenants Federation Joint Annual Conference

Back to the Future - 20 Years of Tenant Participation
12th – 14th November 2008

This year we are looking at the past, the present and the future of tenant participation in Wales to bring you as always a conference that is full of interesting and informative plenary sessions, interactive workshops and great opportunities to network with tenants, landlords staff and other organisations from across Wales.


On Wednesday the main plenaries will review tenant participation in Wales in the ‘Count Us In’ report and will look at how tenant participation has changed the lives of tenants and landlords in Wales over the past 20 years and as always there will be plenty of opportunities to voice your opinion and ask the speakers questions.

On Thursday the main plenary will be discussing what the future holds for tenant participation and will be debating the Regulatory Reform and what it can do for Tenant Participation and findings from the Essex report. As usual the Thursday program contains a wide range of useful and interactive workshops and we will post further details of these shortly, so watch this space!

On Friday there will be more interesting and relevant workshops for you to attend and a fun and interactive closing session (details to follow shortly). The Chairs of both organisations will summarise the lessons learned at the conference to close the event.

If you are interested in attending booking forms will be available shortly from the websites of both TPAS Cymru and the Welsh Tenants Federation.

Please note that the residential bookings will be granted on a first come first served basis so get your forms in quickly when they are available to avoid disappointment.

Our aim is that this year’s program has something for everyone, so come and join us - we look forward to seeing you there!

The above program information is in draft format and may be subject to changes.
