Delivering homes and places that work for all
The housing we build should be accessible, welcoming and thoughtfully designed to improve the quality of life for tenants and residents. What is housing's role in tackling inequalities through design? How do we take the lead in providing accessible and supportive housing that benefit all?

Tackling the under-provision of later living schemes
By 2041, it's predicted that 25% of the UK population will be over 65. Yet there is a disconnect between the amount of people at retirement age in the UK, versus the number of purpose-built later living homes in operation. How do we address the barriers to supply and investment in the later living market to meet the growing demand? How can we guarantee a good service offering and what are the long-term opportunities in later living for the wider housing market?

We have always required a petri dish to ensure we nurture the communities needed to grow the partnerships required to deliver good quality homes and neighbourhoods. This session explores what is needed from start to finish and how do we ensure we get it right first time.
