Due to being oversubscribed, the Right to Build Task Force is pleased to repeat this masterclass on Custom and Self-Build Models of Delivery for local authority planning and housing teams, and members.

This is a re-run of this masterclass, recorded in March, and the format is a recording of the previous session. However, the chat is live and you can use this for questions or comments.

The session is an in-depth look at the nature of the various models used for the delivery of CSB housing, that sets out some of the technical planning issues and shares a selection of useful case studies to illustrate the models.

It includes case studies of developments, presented by the enablers who have been through the process.

This must-attend masterclass will help answer your queries, grow your knowledge and understanding of some of the models used for delivery, while also being an engaging session.

The masterclass is presented by Task Force experts, who are LPA planners with first-hand knowledge of supporting delivery.
