Housing Intelligence for the East Midlands

Hi4em - Housing Intelligence for the East Midlands - is a project funded by the Regional Housing Group of the East Midlands Regional Assembly and supported by G.O.E.M. - Government Office East Midlands. We aim to source, display and map a wide range of data relating to housing markets and private sector housing conditions in the region. The data provided supports Local Authorities working to make homes decent and more energy efficient, particularly for vulnerable households and supports regional and sub-regional assessments of housing market conditions.

An information pack is available which gives an overview of the Hi4em systems and the data available. The elements of the pack can be downloaded from the Document Library. Paper Information Packs are available free on request.

Book now for the Hi4em/DASH Conference and Hi4em Workshops

The first Hi4em and DASH joint conference will be held at Loughborough Town Hall on 17th March. The event will focus on the Single Conversation with guest speaker Amin Khosravi from the Homes and Communities Agency. We'll also be telling you about how Hi4em and DASH can help both with the evidence base and the complexities of communications. We aim to make this easier by building 'Share Point' portals for each HMA partnership.

DASH will be giving an overview of their recent developments and the Hi4em team will give a run through of reporting and GIS tools and introduce the new User Group forum and 'Find It' tool to help you locate the data and maps you want.

Book a place at the Hi4em/DASH Conference on 17th March - please add any special dietary or access requirements.

Hi4em Workshops

The Spring Tour of Hi4em workshops will delve deeper into using reporting and GIS tools, run through the Share Point sites for User Groups and the Single Conversation and discuss how we can improve the web site to make life easier for you.
