We had the absolute pleasure of having Paula Devine & Dirk Schubotz from @ARK_info deliver survey design & analysis training to a group of our staff today. We’ve all being raving about how good it was & can’t wait to put our new knowledge and skills to good use. Thank you both!

Ireland Population: 5.38m Social Housing waiting list = 58,000 NI Population: 1.9m Social Housing waiting list = 47,000 🚨 If you can't see the problem facing NI and act now to provide more social & affordable homes, then be prepared for things to get a lot worse.
