Last week, our Founder and CEO Guy Nixon joined HUB and other industry experts to discuss the role that Build To Rent plays in urban renewal, sharing his thoughts on the future of BTR. It's great to see so many committed to championing the role that BTR can play in our communities and there were some great takeaways from the discussion 👇
Last week we hosted a roundtable discussion, chaired by Green Street News’ residential reporter Jessica Middleton-Pugh, to launch our recent research report on BTR’s role as the catalyst for urban renewal. Key takeaways from the morning’s discussion include: 🏠 “All housing is good housing; it’s all meeting a need” Alice Lester MBE 🏠 BTR can supercharge the delivery of high-quality new homes but, as noted by Rick de Blaby, CEO at Get Living “we need more opportunities to harness economies of scale” 🏠 It was recognised by the local authorities in the room that BTR celebrates the potential of an area and stimulates positive urban regeneration, to the benefit of local communities 🏠 “BTR offers a brilliant product, but we lack a champion for the industry”, said Grainger PLC’s Michael Keaveney. “We have to do events like this to showcase its value.” 🏠 BTR has the capacity to deliver crucial key worker housing, supporting local authorities in recruitment 🏠 Native Communities’s Guy Nixon shared his thoughts on Next Gen BTR, with “affordability now a key focus for the market instead of high-amenity.” It is expected that the future of BTR will move away from the more aspirational amenities that the sector has been delivering over recent years, to cater to a greater pool of potential residents. We’re grateful for all who joined us – fellow specialists in, and champions of, Build to Rent across local government, policy, investment and development.

Independent retailers play a crucial role in Native's placemaking strategy, contributing to the unique character of our assets whilst driving footfall and creating thriving and sustainable places where everyone belongs. We are privileged to work with some of the most celebrated independent F&B brands in Manchester, with an impressive five awards going to Kampus' operators and partners at Monday's Manchester Food & Drink Awards. Two staples of Kampus' garden neighbourhood took home the gold, with Nell's Pizza scooping Best Affordable Eats whilst THE GREAT NORTH PIE COMPANY LTD took Best Independent Food Producer. The Bungalow is Kampus' very own 'village hall' and has hosted a number of brands at the start of their journey which went on to become household names in the city. Love From won Pop Up Project of the Year for their alcohol-free cocktail bar which took up residency at The Bungalow from January to July 2024, and the current Bungalow occupiers, Where the Light Gets In, won Restaurant of the Year, with head chef Sam Buckley also being recognised for Outstanding Contribution. The Bungalow itself was also nominated for an award, as were two more of Kampus' F&B brands - cocktail bar Red Light and Sam Grainger, owner at Madre restaurants. Kampus continues to affirm the benefits of a new way of living in BTR, where mixed-use assets thrive with community at their core.
