A warm welcome to our Welcome Networking Drinks sponsors at ASCP26: Aico, ArcAirTech, Rubix ME and Sureserve.

Before the conference gets underway, we're bringing the safety and compliance community together on the evening of 7 September to connect, catch up and set the tone for the two days ahead. Our four drinks sponsors are helping make it happen.

It's the perfect chance to put faces to names, reconnect with familiar ones and make new connections before the sessions begin.

Research carried out by the ASCP suggests that tackling hard-to-access properties costs the sector in excess of £100 million a year.

And with Awaab's Law now in force, with phases two and three set to bring almost all housing hazards into scope, the pressure on compliance teams has never been greater.

At ASCP26 this September, we're not just talking about it. We're going deep.

A full panel discussion - No access, no excuses - brings together sector leaders on what's working, what isn't and what needs to change. Expect honest conversation, practical learning and updates on the Access for Safety campaign.

And then there's the courtroom.

Karen Jones, Barrister who has prepared witnesses for the Lockerbie trial and the Bloody Sunday Inquiry leads a live Awaab's Law courtroom drama. A delegate faces real cross-examination. You'll see exactly what happens when compliance fails and safety ends up on trial.

If you carry responsibility for keeping residents safe, both sessions are unmissable.

Earlier this week Ignite landed with a dedicated preview magazine to ASCP26.

One thing that stands out in this year's insert: the sheer breadth of what's covered.

Gas. Fire. Electrical. Building safety. Damp and mould. Awaab's Law. Asbestos. Decarbonisation. Leadership and safety culture. This isn't a highlights reel. Every compliance discipline has depth, not just a mention.

Building safety responsibilities now reach well beyond traditional compliance, and front-line staff are often the first to notice when something isn't right.

Our Level 2 Award in Building Safety Management in Housing gives housing professionals the practical skills and regulatory knowledge to identify, assess and manage building safety risks with confidence.

In one day of online delivery you will cover the Building Safety Act and mandatory occurrence reporting, the golden thread, resident engagement, and the role of the Building Safety Manager. Drawing on the lessons of the Grenfell Tower disaster, it moves teams from simple compliance towards proactive safety management.
Suitable for housing and building safety staff, compliance officers, surveyors, maintenance operatives and contractors.

Next course date: 15 July

Safety can't wait outside. That's why we created the Access for Safety campaign. The ASCP is calling for a clear, safeguarded legal route for prescribed safety checks when repeated reasonable attempts to arrange access have failed.

The numbers behind it are stark.

An estimated £245 million annual cost to the sector. Thousands of homes where gas and electrical hazards could be going unresolved. A legal route that remains fragmented and inconsistent.

We're talking about access at ASCP26 this September. Not just the operational challenge but the systemic change the sector needs, and what it means in practice for compliance teams dealing with it every day.
