To be held on Wednesday 21st May and returning to The Studio, Birmingham, our 2025 Conference will again deliver a wide variety of informative and interesting sessions our delegates have come to expect.
With Fraser & Fraser returning as our Main Conference Sponsor, we thank them, and all our sponsors for their continued support, enabling us to keep the delegate rates frozen for the third year running.
As always, our annual conference presents a range of speakers and topics that provide insight into best practice, new initiatives and practices being used across the country to bring empty homes back into use. Our 2025 Conference is no exception, with a fantastic range of speakers and sessions for all experience levels. Our featured sessions include:
‘A Government’s Approach to Empty Homes in Brussels’ – Najib El Kejairi, The Government of Brussels
‘Tackling Empty Homes in the Capital’ – Cllr. Adam Hug, Leader, Westminster City Council
‘Campaigning for Change: Building Support Through a Collaborative Approach’ – Sue Edmonds, Chief Executive, Capital Letters

‘No Use Empty: Kent | 20 Years of building a lasting, sustainable empty homes programme’ – Steve Grimshaw, No Use Empty: Kent
Enforcement Q&A – Andrew Lavender, Housing Training and Law Consultancy Ltd
More Sessions to be announced soon!
