Description

This week’s Social Housing Round Table sponsored by Devonshires focused on a sensitive but essential topic: inquests.


Joined by Samantha Grix and Charlotte Greatorex of Devonshires, the session shed light on what happens when a resident dies, what landlords can expect from the inquest process, and how responsibility is examined and understood.


Key themes included:

– When and how landlords are held accountable

– The role of evidence, communication, and context

– The emotional and legal expectations of families, staff, coroners and the Ombudsman


A rare and necessary conversation that every provider should hear.


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.
