About Mel Cant

I work within the Housing Sector to improve services to the public and providers, using my skills as a trained Barrister to provide leadership, practical advice, training, support and guidance to all providers in the public, private and voluntary sectors. My "can do" attitude along with my passion for ensuring equality and fairness for all through good customer service and practical solutions has made me a "go to" person within social housing.
