We'd like to take a moment to remind our members of the
benefits of ARCH Exchange. The Exchange gives senior employees
working in the stock retained sector a simple way to pool their
knowledge and experience, and to reduce duplicated
efforts.
Members can use the Exchange to ask for examples of how other
councils have tackled a particular situation, to circulate
questionnaires, and to share your committee or policy reports and
much more. It's just another benefit of our membership...
How ARCH Exchange works
Members can email their enquiry, questionnaire or the documents
they're willing to share to exchange@arch-housing.org.uk.
We'll then send out details to the main ARCH contact in each
organisation.
If you can assist with an ARCH Exchange enquiry, you can respond
directly to the member organisation. We provide contact details
with the enquiry and copying your response back to the
Exchange will enable us to maintain a library of responses for
future enquiries and to inform our policy work.
Sharing reports
If you have recently written a committee or policy report that
you would be willing to share with other ARCH members to help other
councils who may be working on the same issue, you can email it to
the Exchange. We'll post it in the member area of the ARCH website and tell other
members it's available in the next mailing.
Our members are encouraged to make use of the ARCH Exchange
facility. Sharing information in this way through the network of
over 60 stock retained councils could save time and effort in
developing new policies and approaches in your own council and help
promote best practice across the stock retained sector.
If you have any queries regarding the Exchange, please
email: exchange@arch-housing.org.uk.
