 UK Housing Policy and PracticeSt George's House, Windsor CastleEach year, BSHF organises a three-day consultation at St George's House in Windsor Castle, bringing together leading experts and practitioners to discuss a theme of current housing concern and to identify ways in which possible solutions can be put into place. The recommendations resulting from these deliberations are used to encourage and support practical and realistic change in both policy and practice. A report is produced following the Consultation which summarises the discussions that took place, illustrates good practice case studies and identifies the key recommendations for action. St George's House is a small residential consultation centre situated within Windsor Castle itself, adjacent to St George's Chapel. Its origins date back to 1348 when it was established as a place where people of influence and responsibility could come together to explore and develop ideas about possible solutions to the problems of the day. 2009 - The Future of Housing: Rethinking the UK housing system for the twenty-first century and companion publication Perspectives on the Future of Housing. 2008 - Home from Home: Addressing the needs of migrant workers 2006 - Building on Diversity: Providing Homes for Refugees and Strengthening Communities 2005 - Redefining the Commons: Locking in Value Through Community Land Trusts 2004 - Recycling the City 2003 - Agents Rather than Patients: Realising the Potential for Asset-based Community Development 2002 - Sustainable Housing Solutions: Transferring Good Practice from the Margins to the Mainstream 2001 - Harnessing Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) for a more Sustainable Future 2000 - New Frontiers in Good Urban Governance 1999 - Building Safer Urban Environments: The Way Forward 1998 - Adding Life to Years: New Ideas and Attitudes to Housing for Older People 1997 - Housing, Self-help and Co-operation 1996 - Human Settlements as part of a Sustainable Future 1995 - Alternative Futures: The Reallocation of Power and Responsibility 1994 - The Reallocation of Resources to meet Global Shelter Needs |
