SUMMARY:In-person seminar: Creating town centres in new communities
DESCRIPTION:This event will be held at the Town & Country Planning Association\, 17 Carlton House Terrace\, London\, SW1Y 5AS \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThriving town centres should be places where people can work\, shop\, eat\, drink and play. Too often in new developments\, housing comes first\, and town centres are left until later or deemed too difficult to deliver. However\, their creation and evolution should be viewed a priority which creates a vibrant heart for the new place.   \n\n\n\nSuccessful delivery of town centres in new communities requires early alignment of infrastructure investment\, programming\, and public engagement. It means maximising opportunities for ‘meanwhile uses’ – temporary\, flexible and interchangeable uses of empty property and land – throughout the development process\, which may take up to 30 years.   \n\n\n\nDesign of community buildings should be sufficiently flexible to allow for adaptation to meet different needs and to provide a range of opportunities for income generation as part of a wider stewardship strategy.   \n\n\n\nGetting this alignment right remains a challenge for those delivering new communities. What can we learn from those delivering new communities right now? What transferable lessons are there from the regeneration of our existing town centres?   \n\n\n\nThis seminar will hear from those who are delivering town centres in new communities from both the private and public sector\, as well as from those who have delivered them in the past\, and will allow plenty of time for discussion and networking.   \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProgramme12:30Registration and networking A light lunch will be available 13:00Welcome and introduction from the Chair  Jackie Sadek\, Director\, Urban Strategy 13:10What is the future for new local and district centres?James Scott\, Group Director of Strategy and Planning\, Urban & Civic13:25What are data trusts and why do they matter for successful town centre design and management? Richard Ford\, Partner at Pinsent Masons13:40 Q&A 14:00Tea and coffee 14:20Case study 1: Whitehill & Bordon – re-imagining the town centre  Clare Chester\, Head of Regeneration\, Economy & Assets\, East Hampshire District Council14:35Case study 2: Homes England and new neighbourhood centres in the MidlandsSarah Taylor\, Head of Planning and Enabling – Central and Guy Scott\, Project Director\, Homes England 14:50Q&A15:10Conclusion from the Chair15:15Close\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTCPA Members get discounted tickets – explore membership options here. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis event is free to New Communities Group members – check if your local authority is a member here. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSupported by:

SUMMARY:Creating age-friendly\, inclusive homes and communities
DESCRIPTION:The UK’s population is undergoing a massive age shift. In less than 20 years\, one in four people will be over 65. The Centre for Ageing Better’s vision is a society where everyone enjoys later life. The safety and accessibility of our homes is key to our health\, wellbeing and social connections as we grow older. \n\n\n\nAs part of their strategic partnership with the Greater Manchester Combined Authority\, the Centre for Ageing Better has partnered with Manchester School of Architecture on a new approach to understanding the housing choices of those in their 50’s and 60s. \n\n\n\nThe Rightplace research project builds on their previous work\, ‘Rightsizing: reframing the housing offer for older people’ and confirms there is a significant gap between people’s ambitions and the housing choices available to them. The research provides a fresh perspective on older people’s housing needs and choices and the potential policy options that are likely to be most effective in improving choice – both locally and nationally – to create places which support healthier and more enjoyable lives for more people.  \n\n\n\nCreating change will require collaboration from local planners and central government to housing providers and the third sector. That is why we have brought together this exciting group of speakers to highlight current inspiring approaches from across the UK\, and to collectively address the question: ‘How can we create age-friendly and inclusive homes and new communities?’. \n\n\n\nAgenda10:00WelcomeJulia Thrift\, Director\, Healthier Place-making \, TCPA10:05Introduction to the session and Ageing Better’s ambitions for age-friendly homesHolly Holder\, Deputy Director of Homes\, Centre for Ageing Better10:15The importance of planning for an ageing populationJoanna Averley\, Chief Planner Department for Levelling Up\, Housing and Communities10:25Age-friendly strategy development in regeneration of towns and citiesPaul Quinn\, Director of Regeneration\, and Sarah Mitton\, Age Friendly Communities Manager\, Clarion Housing10:40Findings and recommendations from ‘Rightplace’Dr Mark Hammond\, Senior Lecturer and Prof Stefan White\, Professor of Architecture\, Manchester School Architecture11:05Q&A11:25CloseJulia Thrift\, Director\, Healthier Place-making\, TCPA\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClick here to register free\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSupported by:

SUMMARY:Building resilient large scale new communities
DESCRIPTION:New Communities Group Webinar\n\n\n\nNew development must be built to withstand the challenges of climate change that will hit us over the next century. It must be designed from the outset to avoid and manage the flow of excess water and protect communities from the risks of overheating. Large-scale new development offers particular opportunities to deliver resilient communities\, including considering climate adaptation in the overall design and layout of development\, ensuring all homes are appropriately ventilated and resilient to flood risk so that future retrofitting is unnecessary and integrating green infrastructure throughout the development to provide shade to people and buildings.   \n\n\n\nThis webinar will explore the ways in which new development can be made intrinsically resilient to the impacts of climate change\, including discussing the critical importance of site selection\, the role of sustainable urban drainage systems and how to address the risk of overheating.   \n\n\n\nThe latest addition to the TCPA’s suite of practical guides for creating successful new communities will also be launched at the webinar.   \n\n\n\nProgramme10:00 Welcome and introduction from the ChairJim Davies\, Strategic Environmental Planning Lead (Climate Change Adaptation)\, Environment Programme Team\, Environment Agency; TCPA Policy Council    \nSession 1: Flooding \n10:10Flood Re and the insurance problemKatherine Greig\, Head of Transition\, Flood Re\n10:20 \nTechnical solutions and SUDS Louise Walker\, Project Manager\, CIRIA  10:35\nQ&A \n \nSession 2: Overheating \n10:50Technical overview on overheating in new buildingsGwyn Roberts\, Homes and Communities Lead\, BRE11:00 Case study – Managing overheating – policy and practiceEmma Davies\, Principal Sustainability Consultant\, Greater CambridgeShared Planning Service  11:10\nQ&A \n11:25 Launch of new Garden City climate adaptation guide  Jessie Fieth\, Projects and Policy Manager\, TCPA     11:30Close\n\n\n\nThe webinar is essential for councillors\, developers\, consultants\, business leaders\, council officers\, community groups\, architects and designers\, students and anyone who is interested in the future of design of new communities.  \n\n\n\nThis is a New Communities Group webinar.
