Events

Some of you will remember that we took on part of the ‘West Highland Way’, (WHW) challenge last Summer, raising just over £1400 for the Homeless Project Scotland and the Glasgow NW Foodbank. The weather was kind to us, the team thoroughly enjoyed the experience, and it was such a worthwhile endeavour to support charities delivering some great work in the process.

This year, we take on the next stage of the WHW, leaving from Drymen – heading for Rowardennan, covering 15 miles of the stunning Scottish landscape. With all our team taking part on Friday 31st May – we will be raising funds for CHAS – Children’s Hospices Across Scotland.

For thirty years the charity has been offering a full family support service for babies, children, and young people with life-shortening conditions. This includes palliative care, family respite and support – through their hospices, homecare services and hospital presence. Their incredible work has such a positive impact on the families that they support each day. Please donate as little or as much as you can via our just giving page below!

Thanks so much for your help – we will keep you all updated on how we get on. Wish us luck!

Following several successful projects with members of the SFHA we’re looking forward to being part of the two-day housing event this summer. Partners, RingCentral are also the main conference dinner sponsor that takes place at the hotel on the Tuesday evening.

Softworx partners, RingCentral are all about reimagining the world of business communications and collaboration with relentless passion to innovate, making them the leading cloud communications provider worldwide. Come and visit us at stand no. 19 and find out more about their technology that delivers simpler communication to help your business grow and thrive.

We will also be at exhibition stand no. 10 with partners, Clevertouch Technologies, providing the opportunity to interact and engage with their popular Clevertouch screens admired in all work settings and being used by various housing associations across Scotland.

Clevertouch Technologies design solution-based products that enable collaboration and remote meetings, allowing customers to inform and instruct, and encourage teamwork and idea-sharing. No matter what type of team you are a part of, they have a solution for you; from education to enterprise, and everything in between.

Alan Smillie, Softworx, Managing Director, said, “We’ve been working closely with the housing sector throughout Scotland from digital screen installation to collaboration software and the incredible feedback we’ve received in terms of the positive impact the technology is having on their business and process has been significant. We’re delighted to be attending this year’s SFHA conference and our team and partners from both RingCentral and Clevertouch are on hand across the exhibitions duration to listen and share solutions to your problems. I hope that you make it Softworx.”

The SFHA event provides the opportunity for sector leaders, and senior staff to hear from experts, gain skills, and exchange ideas to prepare for, and shape, the future of housing in Scotland. Returning to a physical event this year, the conference and exhibition delivers break-out workshop sessions, networking lunch and the conference dinner on the Tuesday evening.
