In this powerful and timely episode of Around the Table, we ask not just how many homes the UK should build – but how we build, and how we want to live.
As the government announces a landmark £39bn housing boost, our panel explores the bold ideas behind Human Nature’s new “How Shall We Live” report – a radical yet practical vision to tackle climate breakdown, housing unaffordability, social isolation, and economic fragility, all through how and where we build.
Host Rachel Colgan, Founding Director of Building Relations PR, is joined by:
Joanna Yarrow - Chief Impact Officer, Human Nature
Brogan MacDonald - Head of Sustainability, Ramboll UK (Buildings)
Jon DiStefano - CEO, Greencore Homes
Together, they explore:
Why we need to move from building units to building communities
How nature-based materials can remove carbon at scale
What radical affordability really means – beyond house prices
The role of place in supporting health, connection, and belonging
Real delivery models proving that better is not only possible – it’s already happening
