Conveyancing Association Chair Nicky Heathcote to Step Down

Nicky Heathcote, non-executive chair of the Conveyancing Association, will step down from her role as she nears the end of her second term leading the organisation. Heathcote will remain in post while the board appoints her successor.

During her tenure, Heathcote has led initiatives aimed at strengthening the association and representing the interests of conveyancing professionals across the UK. After her successor is appointed, Heathcote will continue to be active in the property sector as chair of the PCCB Compliance Committee and as a member of the Women in Conveyancing Committee.

The association also confirmed that David Hodgson, treasurer and one of the original founders of the Conveyancing Association, is stepping down from the board. The process of appointing successors to both board positions is now underway.

These leadership changes may be of interest to UK letting agents and inventory clerks, as the Conveyancing Association plays a role in shaping industry standards and representing conveyancing professionals involved in property transactions.
