Face-to-face training sessions
Bookings are now open for their FREE face-to-face training sessions which will run over the next two years.
These not only help to deepen your understanding of your rights as a resident of Barnet Homes or Opendoor Homes but are also a great way to meet other social housing residents in your area, and a first step towards forming a residents’ group to engage collectively with your landlord. Places are limited, so it’s important to Book now.

All training sessions are accredited as part of the Chartered Institute of Housing recognised programme. The first training dates in London include;

- Know your rights to engage and be heard – 24 May 2023
- Equality, diversity, and inclusion – 5 July 2023
