North West Affordable Housing Conference (25/01/08)

Housing and the delivery of affordable housing has never been further up the political agenda, with the government announcing additional resources to enable the increase in supply and tools to speed up that delivery.  However there are still barriers to delivery and the increased resources do not match the challenging targets for increased supply in the region.  In other words we need to deliver more - for less.

This event, aimed at senior practitioners in the region, explored the Government's affordable housing agenda, what growth means for the North West, and looked at innovative ways of delivering.  As well as the delivery of new properties, the event considered the role that existing properties have to play, particularly how in major regeneration areas they can be brought back into use and contribute to the overall supply of affordable housing in the region.
