The scenes we have seen unfold in #Ukraine and the threats from the Russian regime today are truly shocking. Thoughts with the people of Ukraine and all those displaced by violence 🇺🇦

The @worldhabitat awards are open for entries until 14th March. This isn’t the time to celebrate Russian achievements, we won’t be accepting submissions from Russia this year

A shock to hear of the sad passing of Steve Douglas. He was a giant of the social housing world, a class act and genuinely nice guy.

Even a small flood washes into the door in a house like this, dissolves the mud walls and causes the roof to collapse #PakistanFloods2022

If masonry or steel girders are used, like this house in Sindh, flood will cause a roof collapse and can easily kill the people sheltering inside #PakistanFloods2022

So sad to hear about the passing of Bob Kerslake. A warm perceptive and highly effective man. Our success ⁦Action on Empty Homes @emptyhomes⁩ when I was there wouldn’t have happened without his shrewd advice. My sympathy to ⁦Ros Kerslake CBE⁩ and his family theguardian.com/politics/2023/…
