The future of social housing: What kind of sector do we need for the next decade?

25 Nov 2026
Keynote stage
What should the social housing sector look like by the end of the next decade – and what needs to change to get there? This session will explore how the roles of housing associations and councils could evolve, where consolidation and new partnerships fit, and how the relationship between landlords and residents needs to change. It will ask whether current operating models are equipped for the scale of ambition ahead, and what a stronger, more sustainable sector could look like.
