No place like home? Delivering quality housing for future generations

28 March 2025, 11:00 am – 12:00 pm

Location: Nitrogen Room, Eden Project, Bodelva, Cornwall, PL24 2SG

Think tank: Bright Blue

This event hosted by UK think tank Bright Blue explores what makes a healthy home and how public policy can improve both the quantity and quality of the UK’s housing stock.

Where we live profoundly impacts our health and wellbeing, yet many in the UK still live in poor quality housing. This panel will explore what makes a healthy home and how public policy can improve both the quantity and quality of the UK’s housing stock for future generations. We will discuss how we can achieve better homes through planning policy, building standards and energy efficiency measures.

Join us at the UK’s largest gathering of future makers. Anthropy brings together responsible leaders and organisations to look at how to make the UK a better place. Founded on the principle that the future is a shared responsibility, and at its core is a 3 day national gathering which takes over the entire Eden Project in Cornwall, to embark on 200+ sessions, led by 600+ speakers.
