In the 20 years since I finished my studies and set up in business the conviction that a solution to the housing crisis is all around us in our towns and cities has grown.

It's not complicated, it is also not obvious and it is definitely not easy. Whilst many have noticed these sites, no-one else has yet suggested that hundreds of thousands of homes could be built on them. #HousingCrisis

The lack of affordable housing means people are reliant on unscrupulous landlords. Let’s build more houses then rental market standards will have to improve. It’s basic supply and demand. theguardian.com/society/2019/o…

theguardian.com/politics/2019/… let’s hope they’re not gonna build them all on our precious countryside nor give all the building work to large contractors. Little Ships sites save the countryside, boosts local SME businesses and boosts public sector coffers. #housingcrisis
