Event Summary
As Awaab’s Law expands in 2026, social landlords must move from reacting to damp and mould to systematically managing a much broader range of hazards such as excess cold or heat, fire risks, electrical safety, and structural issues. Phase 3 in 2027 will bring all remaining HHSRS hazards into scope. The law requires social landlords to fix these issues within strict timeframes.
Join Westminster Insight’s full-day Awaab’s Law – Managing Hazards in Social Housing Digital Conference to discuss emerging best practice, resources, and guidance to help social landlords meet these new requirements.
With a focus on predictive repairs, early identification, effective triage, and long-term asset planning, you will gain a clear understanding of what a culture of safety and accountability looks like. How do you embed integrated cross-team working to effectively monitor the condition and improve the long-term resilience of stock? Embedding hazard identification into routine inspections, voids, and planned maintenance will be critical.
Through case studies and practical insights, find out how to develop robust, resident-focused approaches to the prevention and remediation of damp and mould and other health hazards in homes.
Across the sector, there is increasing demand for proactive property management. Learn how you can take proactive action, use technology, and engage with tenants to identify, prevent, and fix damp and mould and other hazards. Expert speakers will share data solutions to monitor, predict, and accurately diagnose issues.
Take away guidance for managing complaints involving hazards, and the prescribed requirements for emergency hazards. Prepare for the wider legislation and prevent future complaints.
Don’t miss this opportunity to take away actionable learning and ensure compliance with the next phases of Awaab’s Law.
