Committed to continually delivering: Using Zoom for residents’ meetings
While the pandemic remains challenging for businesses, technology is pointing the way forward. At Gateway, we’re committed to providing customers and clients with the very best service. This includes using video communications for key events and meetings.
Gathering safely, virtually
Regrettably, large-scale meetings in person are still as unfeasible as shaking hands.
Whilst we look forward to circumstances returning to normal as soon as possible, we’re also always looking for the best ways to adapt to the current situation.
Gateway are therefore very excited to announce that we will shortly be conducting all residents’ meetings through the video conferencing app, Zoom.
Business as usual
We’ll be running a number of meetings, events and presentations online, including:
- Annual General Meetings (AGMs)
- Extraordinary General Meetings (EGMs)
- Residents’ meetings
- Welcome meetings
- Client presentations
- Industry workshops, and more
Wherever it helps, the Gateway team will be streamlining events using structured, informative webinars, bringing all you need to know together. When a meeting is arranged for your property, we will provide all the information needed to join from the comfort of your home.
Make sure you have provided us with an up-to-date email address so that you don’t miss out on these meetings and events.

Besides providing proactive property management, our specialist services include residential lettings, property insurance, surveying and leasehold advice.
We understand just how important property is to individuals and businesses. We know issues arise and we will always do our best to stop matters from becoming problems. Our ethos is consistent across our group: to treat each property under our care as a unique investment and every customer and client as an individual. Our teams share the same commitment to delivering professional, friendly help, nationwide.

The Coronavirus pandemic has reshaped what many people want from their homes, with a trend for more space, inside and out.
Increased homeworking is changing how people view their homes. A recent survey by property group, Savills, reports that nearly half (49%) expect homeworking to continue after the lockdown. 4 in 10 (40%) of people under 50 now want to upsize to a bigger home, with private outside space also in demand.
Along with size, the flexibility of space is also important, especially being able to have an integrated working area or the room for a home office.
The Architects’ Journal looks at the impact of the pandemic on future approaches to housebuilding. Incorporating purpose-built home working spaces, with access to good-quality natural light and soundproofing between walls (and traffic) were seen as new fundamentals. The Journal also explores housing design more widely, including emerging community needs.
