We’re in the middle of a global housing crisis.

The cost of housing has grown far faster than income, and in Bristol alone, there are over 19,500 households on the housing register and only around 1,500 homes to let each year. We know we need to provide affordable homes fast, but how can we build social, economic and environmental capital while doing so?

Getting the design of housing and housing delivery right is the biggest challenge of our time. Join Simon Bayliss, Founding Partner of HTA Design, and other sector leaders to hear how well-designed neighbourhoods could meet demand while reducing the final bill for health and social care in our society.
