The Building Centre, 26 Store Street, London WC1E 7BT

The resilient housing conference is an opportunity to learn more about how we can design long-lasting and high performance homes in response to:
 

• Warming climate and overheating risk – greater need to keep our buildings cool as well as warm.
   
• Changing weather patterns and flood risk – increased risk of flooding and storm events.
   
• Changing demographics – different types of housing to accommodate increasing elderly population and more urban living.
   
• Energy availability and fuel poverty – improved energy efficiency/ high thermal performance.
   
• Sustainability credentials – traceability of material supply, low carbon, recyclability.
   
• Occupant safety and comfort – fire resistance, health and wellbeing, thermal comfort.
   

The event will explain the performance credentials of brick, block and concrete and the latest developments to deliver resilient, durable high-quality homes.
 

The day will begin at 9.45am and conclude at 3.30pm. Registration and refreshments will be available from 9.15am.
