Young people and communities are being urged to use first ever Birmingham Housing Week to “look beyond the hard hats and bricks” and explore the raft of housing sector career opportunities as part of a city masterplan to deliver high levels of new jobs, homes, investment and green space. The week will be taking place from 5th-9th February 2024 and will centre on addressing housing provision in the city, while highlighting the investment and employment opportunities within Birmingham's current and future housing landscape. Young people will play a significant role in the week, with events ranging from challenges to hearing from sector experts in sessions on the various careers in housing in an exciting time for the city. Stuart Penn, Regional Managing Director at Lovell Partnerships Ltd says: "Birmingham Housing Week provides a remarkable platform to shine a spotlight on substantial investments in advancing homes within the city. With an exceptional set of events already lined up, we are looking forward to the conversations and debates and highlighting the collaborative efforts across sectors. We’re looking forward to welcoming industry leaders and the local community alike to contribute to the shared vision to build a better Birmingham." Cllr. Jayne Francis, Cabinet Member for Housing and Homelessness at Birmingham City Council, adds: "We are thrilled to confirm the launch of Birmingham Housing Week in collaboration with industry-leading partners, Lovell Partnerships, and MOBIE. "Our focus extends beyond addressing current issues; we aim to foster a forward-looking perspective that supports the next generation of young individuals and promotes regeneration. We encourage as many people as possible from across the city to actively engage in the events and activities we have planned.” More details here: https://lnkd.in/e8tuaUCr #birmingham #birminghamhousingweek #housing #housingsector #investment #newjobs #newhomes #greenspaces #regeneration #youngpeople #communities #collaboration #careeropportunities
