Delivering the renaissance in council built homes: four ‘nationwide’ high level seminars – Cambridge, Exeter, York, Manchester
March 21, 2018 @ 4:30 pm - March 28, 2018 @ 6:00 pm
Please join the Smith Institute at one of four ‘nationwide’ high level regional seminars in March – in Cambridge, Exeter, York and Manchester – focussed on the renaissance in councils building again.
The Smith Institute’s research and that of the TCPA shows that councils are finding new and exciting ways of meeting local housing needs, including setting up local housing companies and new forms of joint ventures. A lot of the innovations are taking place in the regions, which is why we are holding these seminars (kindly supported by the Nationwide Foundation). They are also taking place in the context of a number of housing reviews – including by the Government, the Labour Party, Shelter and CIH. We see the events therefore as an opportunity to not only learn from each other, but to discuss the latest research and help shape the debate on councils building again.
