Listen "How to Build Better Homes Faster"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of The Social Housing Round Table, Chris Griffiths of Saint-Gobain joins Matt Baird to discuss the urgent need to build better homes faster and why we’re not doing so already.
From outdated myths around insulation to misconceptions about MMC and barriers caused by disconnected service design, this episode uncovers the root of our sector’s slow progress. Chris brings both frustration and optimism to the table, with a clear message: we have the knowledge and technology - what we need now is joined-up thinking, collaboration, and the courage to do things differently.
A thought-provoking listen for anyone working in or alongside housing, construction, planning, policy, or procurement.
