Join us in person or online to hear about the latest research on the delivery of affordable rural housing.

Hosted by the Rural Housing Innovation Network, this one-day workshop will explore challenges and opportunities to strengthen rural housing delivery, with several case studies from professionals involved in building and managing these homes, including Housing Associations and Community Land Trusts.

The workshop will commence with presentations on research insights, followed by presentations of projects, and will conclude with a roundtable discussion to explore how research can better inform housing delivery in practice. Please see the agenda below for speaker details and further information about each session.

About the Rural Housing Innovation Network

The Rural Housing Innovation Network (https://www.ucl.ac.uk/bartlett/research-projects/2026/may/rural-housing-innovation-network-rhin) brings together researchers in UK universities with rural housing sector bodies for the purpose of examining and evidencing critical challenges relating to rural affordable housing delivery. Through targeted research, including student research, it aims to assist sector bodies in understanding and overcoming impediments to development in rural areas. By drawing attention, and detailing challenges and best practice, the network also aims to influence policy and practice frameworks, locally and nationally.
