This conference provides a key opportunity to assess how the new Government will tackle the housing crisis, where the money will come from, how to approach the acute shortage of skilled construction workers and the role housing associations can play. Managing numerous homes under the scrutiny of the regulator and to the satisfaction of residents, whilst driving business efficiency, is a complex task. Experts will analyse the common pitfalls, debate the true cost of housing and equip you with the knowledge and skills to deliver great homes and communities.

11:30 Comfort break

11:45 BreaKout SeSSIonS B1: Improving the prospects for institutional investment in affordable housing If we are to deliver a real step change in house building we need to explore alternative ways of funding delivery.

vic O’Brien, Development Director, GreenSquare Group Michael Oxley, Director, cambridge centre for Housing and planning Research

B2: how well do you know your stock? The Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) is turning its attention to associations’ asset registers to ensure that public investment is safeguarded.

scale development

14:45 Refreshment break and exhibition viewing

15:15 panel dIScuSSIon the whole cost of housing – how much does it cost to live in your home? Rent is only one part of the cost of housing. Heating, lighting and service charges all impact on affordability. landlords are responsible for the quality and efficiency of the homes they let, so is there an argument for a pay- as-you-save model for rented housing? How might this interact with associations’ development ambitions?

John Alker, Director of policy and Communications, UK Green Building council Richard Ferraro, Director, EcD Architects Shelagh Grant, Chief Executive, The Housing Forum Jeremy Kape, Director of property Investment, Affinity Sutton

16:20 do we have the skills to solve the housing crisis? As the housing market picks up, skilled construction workers are at a premium. This has a direct impact on the cost of building new homes and the deliverability of affordable housing. Retrofit, refurbishment and regeneration all require skilled workers to deliver better quality existing homes but there is a skills shortage. What can be done about it?

Denise Chevin, Freelance Journalist and Consultant Robin nicholson, Senior partner, cullinan Studio and The Edge David pierpoint, Chief Executive, coRE Keith Simpson, Business Development Director, Just Housing

It will also look at ways of overcoming the barriers to doing more.

Mike Jones, leader of Cheshire West and Chester, Local Government Association (invited) nick Salisbury, Director, Social Finance
