Urban Bites #13 focusing on the housing crisis. With Stefano Smith FRTPI FRSA Tom Ockendon Peter Smith

Tackling one of the most pressing challenges of our time: the housing crisis.

With the recent announcement of the new national housing agency, “More Homes Scotland” the timing couldn’t be better. There’s real momentum building around how to deliver more – and better – homes across the country. The key question is how to turn ambition into action.

They will be exploring:

What’s driving the current crisis
What needs to change systemically
How collaboration across sectors can unlock delivery
And what this means for Scotland’s cities and communities
Looking forward to a lively discussion – and continuing the conversation afterwards at the Curler’s Rest.

All welcome. Come along, bring your questions, and be part of the debate
