In this Social Housing Round Table session, hosted by Matt Baird, we were joined by Emma Peniket and Julie Smart from the Birmingham Social Housing Partnership to explore how effective partnership working can support community cohesion.

The discussion focused on what true collaboration looks like in practice, particularly within community safety and resident-first decision making. Emma and Julie shared how open communication, shared responsibility and a willingness to work beyond organisational boundaries are helping to create stronger outcomes for residents across Birmingham.

This session highlights what can happen when partnerships move beyond theory and into action, offering valuable insight for housing professionals looking to strengthen collaboration and deliver more joined-up services.

Big thank you to Case Management Solutions Group Ltd and Alertacall Ltd for sponsoring The Social Housing Round Table, without them, none of this would be possible.
