We are delighted to announce that Nicky Gavron, Assembly Member at the Greater London Authority, is confirmed to speak at Explore Offsite Housing on the 05 April at the Inmarsat, London.
With London’s population set to grow by a million in just ten years, the demand for houses is only set to rise which is why Nicky Gavron has launched an investigation into the potential of offsite manufacture and construction as an answer to bridge the gap between London’s housing need and supply.
This timely investigation comes at a time when the Mayor of London is encouraging innovative methods of construction and has stated he wants to see a lot more off-site housing schemes coming forward for funding.
Explore Offsite Housing is your opportunity to hear directly from the woman behind the investigation and the Q&A session will provide answers to your questions about the important investigation.
Explore Offsite Housing will present innovative thinking by assembling some of the industry’s ‘thought leaders’, including Nicky, to give their views on how offsite manufacturing and construction can assist in meeting the UK housing shortage. Speakers already confirmed include:
- Andrew Waugh - Founder and Director, Waugh Thistleton
