West Yorkshire Best Practice Partnership Launch
Thursday 26 September 2019
Novotel, 4 Whitehall Quay, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS1 4HR
Join us for the launch of The Best Practice Partnership Network.
A joined up commitment to promote the role of Registered Housing Providers when dealing with ASB and Safeguarding issues which impact upon our communities throughout West Yorkshire.
It is being set up as a mechanism to -
- enable access to the right people from relevant agencies at the right time to make decisions
- share information safely and achieve faster, successful outcomes either by identifying support to sustain tenancies or case building to proceed with legal enforcement action.
It will also contribute towards helping to shape consistent strategic objectives for everyone who is involved.
These partner agencies include Police, Fire & Rescue Service, Local Authorities, Health, Third Sector Charitable Organisations and anyone who can make a difference by contributing to the process.
The event is free to attend and includes lunch.
