It is great to be leading in an event generating ideas to support the #housing industry with the issues of #ClimateChange #VirtualHousingFestival
'Everyone should have a decent home that’s truly affordable, powered by renewable energy, well connected with access to green & open space’ says @ThangamMP - 345,000 new homes are needed per year with 7.5 million in housing need, increasing supply by 43% #VirtualHousingFestival
The biggest difference between Finland, where great strides have been made towards eradicating homelessness, and England, is "without doubt" the level of social housing supply, @JKaakinen tells #VirtualHousingFestival

Don't take our word for it, our exhibitors speak for themselves...
"HOMES UK 2019 was a highly effective event with a great mix of attendees across almost every housing association in the country. Following on from a successful event last year, we decided to increase our presence and double the size of our stand for 2019. That made it the perfect place to launch our new IoT solution Tempus which is a collaboration with Cornerstone.."
