#SOchathour is the go-to place to discuss all things #SharedOwnership nationally. We give Shared Ownership a voice via our twitter hours, live streams and podcasts; a place for the sector to come together over a brew in the comfort of your own home. We’ll be talking about lending, government initiatives, legislation, reputation management, mortgages, affordable home ownership, branding, marketing and digital alongside much more.
