CIH Launches Financial Inclusion Network

The Chartered Institute of Housing has launched a financial inclusion network to help housing professionals prevent their tenants falling into debt. The Practice Network on Financial Inclusion is the first forum of its kind for housing providers to share good practice. Backed by the Financial Services Authority and Barclays, the network will share ideas and initiatives which help tenants open bank accounts, access affordable credit, obtain money advice and become more financially aware. It will be open to housing workers, credit union staff and money and benefits advisors. Find out more on the Inside Housing website.
