The Rooflight Association, formerly NARM, the National Association of Rooflight Manufacturers, held it’s first general meeting since the rebrand, at Swindon’s National Self Build & Renovation Centre in September 2023.
With its membership now open to contractors, installers, specifiers, consultants, distributors and other businesses or individuals in the rooflight industry, it was a busy session with a detailed agenda, outlining the Association’s goals for the coming years.
Ian Weakford, Rooflight Association Chairman, says: “Our mission has always been to support best practice and to ensure growth and sustainability in our industry. Broadening our membership base will enable us to address these goals more effectively, with a unified voice that represents and supports the whole sector.
“In addition to our ongoing close involvement with influential industry working groups, legislators and standards bodies, we are now also developing new initiatives to engage with and support our new membership groups.”
Guest speaker Sarah Spink, CEO of LRWA (Liquid Roofing & Waterproofing Association), says: “We support the Rooflight Association and share a common mission to support excellence and professionalism in the roofing sector. It was a pleasure to share my experiences as a trade association CEO and to meet up with like minded colleagues and friends.”
The Rooflight Association publishes freely available technical guidance covering all aspects of rooflighting design, specification and installation. Documents are downloadable from the Association’s website at www.rooflightassociation.org
