The Housing Forum seeks to increase both the supply and quality of new homes. It is focused on delivery through partnership working across the supply chain.
The achievement of our vision is heavily impacted by wider economic conditions and the approach taken by Government through supply and demand side measures.
As a not-for-profit, a-political, democratic organisation, The Housing Forum is uniquely placed to influence policy and inform practice in the way projects are procured and delivered.
Through our strong links with national and regional policymakers we have developed an extensive network, built on The Housing Forum’s reputation for a high standard of balanced industry knowledge.
In this section you’ll find links to our Manifesto for Housing, our campaigning activity and practical resources.
