The London Branch of the Chartered Institute of Housing held a seminar last year to inspire people to get on and deliver sustainable, affordable housing in London. Wates Living Space kindly sponsored the event.
The seminar focused on the practical ways that organisations and people are working together to increase high quality supply.
Despite the current economic climate the key actions summarising the seminar are still relevant today and the contents of that day have been encapsulated in a pamphlet, which we have distributed to London MP’s and senior figures in the London Housing world.
We welcome the fact that the new Mayor of London is committed to increasing the supply of affordable housing. At the same time as engaging in debate about a future London Housing Strategy, we will observe with interest the difference that his housing policy proposals will make to London’s housing situation.
Please do
