"Yet another inspiring Women In Social Housing event hosted by WISH (London Region) raising money for Shelter UK. Really enjoyed the opening speech from Polly Neate CBE FAcSS DSc(hc), followed by the whistlestop presentation about Imposter Syndrome, finishing off three useful grounding tips from Tracey McEachran FRSA, MA, PCC."

I felt really uplifted and Christmassy afterwards! I put that down to the great tips from the speakers... And the mulled wine and mince pies helped of course...

WISH is a group of strong, aspirational and talented women who are challenging the norms of this industry. Introduced to Nicola and WISH as I started in this field of work, has helped me to gain confidence in my professional and personal development, learn faster in a new industry and make trusted friends.
