From temporary accommodation crisis to new supply: Building a better model

25 Nov 2026
New Homes and Places Theatre
With councils facing unprecedented pressure from the cost and shortage of temporary accommodation, can development provide part of the answer? Drawing on emerging delivery models, this session will explore how councils, housing associations and partners can use land, funding and innovative construction approaches to create additional good-quality temporary homes rather than competing for existing supply.
