WhatHouse? New Homes Debate in partnership with Show House magazine

Date: 10 May 2017 - 10 May 2017, 9:00 - 2:00

Location: Old Trafford, Manchester

Email: sb@globespanmedia.com

The WhatHouse? New Homes Debate is a morning of lively, interactive panel discussions with senior property industry figures, local leaders and regional influencers, chaired by Lord Hague, debating, in front of an invited audience, the key housing issues affecting Manchester and the wider north-west and Northern Powerhouse.

After the huge success of our inaugural New Homes Debate held in London last autumn, it was natural to move the conversation north and to Manchester – a city where residential development is fuelling the fastest growing economy outside the south-east.

Chaired once again by Lord William Hague, the former foreign secretary, and leader of the Conservative Party, the morning promises to hold challenging and stimulating discussions about the city and the region’s housing future.

What to expect

To get a flavour of what to expect, check out the video from the WhatHouse? New Homes Debate – Housing London 2020 and beyond that we held at the Emirates Stadium in September 2016.
