S1:E2Housing Festival Director Jez Sweetland on Driving Affordable Housing Innovation

Jez Sweetland, Project Director of the Housing Festival, outlines the organisation's mission as an independent "think and do tank" sparking housing innovation. Drawing on his background in corporate law and inspired by Bristol’s housing challenges, he focuses on system-wide change. The Housing Festival drives delivery of social, council, and sub-market key worker homes. Rooted in social justice, it unites local, regional, and national partners to tackle housing inequality and homelessness.
