Our annual Values in Practice (VIP) awards say thank you to members, tenants, employees, and residents who make a real difference in our communities. The last year has been another challenging year for us all and we are proud of the great work amongst our communities. On Thursday 27th January, we hosted this year's award ceremony, looking back over the last year and celebrating those individuals and teams who have made a difference amongst our communities.
