This felt like a very real conversation about race inequality. High quality speakers giving honest answers to insightful questions. Connex is the go to housing network for engaging and thought provoking discussion.

I found it a really useful discussion - so interesting to see where others are in their journey - and also interesting to hear from experience outside the housing sector - I suspect this is one we'll come back to again and again.

Valuable and thought provoking. All the speakers were able to bring genuinely thoughtful insight to the topic, in ways that were honest and challenging, but always constructive. Many thanks to Tunde for making it happen.

Excellent speakers giving different perspectives on an important subject and very well chaired.

Really great group of people with so much practical experience and knowledge to share. Very empowering to be a part of a group so committed to positive change.

Every Connex event I've attended so far has provided me with great insight and gave me the opportunity to join candid conversations. The conversations are a unique opportunity to know better the motivations and challenges faced by the housing sector; useful knowledge that support my role as a Marketer. On a personal level, it inspired me with examples to follow when it comes to being authentic, fighting impostor syndrome and lighted up ideas for my own career development.

Really refreshing take on the topic of customer centricity - all speakers were great but Emma Davison’s perspective in particular wasn’t one we usually hear

I genuinely thought I would have my camera off and log off the event early as so many events these days are rubbish done online. But I stayed on and it worked really well. Very grateful for the speakers who clearly nailed their brief and kept to time, so many don’t and it meant the event was really well paced and the speaker/ question ratio worked so well. Was glad to have my camera on and discover it was a small group which gave me the confidence to ask a question.

I was very apprehensive at first until I heard the first speaker, Tanya, speak. OMG.. That hooked me! I was delighted I attended. In retrospect, not sure why I was afraid at first. Those stories were inspiring. Each speaker seemed to awaken the 'superwoman' within me.  Well done to all!

Rarely do you attend a meeting where so much can be learnt in so short a time, valuable insights into experiences, approaches and methodologies to tackle EDI related challenges.
