A pleasure to host the Dept for Education & Forestry Commission at CLiCs.
We talked all things timber, skills training & education, affordable homes & schools estate.
We’re called Agile Homes but we also do low carbon affordable schools, because schools, community & housing are always interwoven.

Brilliant representation by Giaimo of the embodied carbon wasted in the demolition of perfectly good buildings in Toronto to build bigger buildings. A thousand houses worth of carbon. @azuremagazine.bsky.social #human/nature

Four people - three men and a woman - stand at the front of a room behind some chairs. They are all smiling at the camera. Behind them a screen reads ' Unlocking the potential of SME developers and community-led housing to solve the housing crisis.' Four people present behind a desk at the front of a room. The photo is taken from the back with a full audience in front of the speakers. One speaker in a shirt and tie is stood up to present

A big thanks to all who joined our event at the @libdems.org.uk conference, especially our speakers Alison Ward, @tweeteco.bsky.social,
@gideonamos.bsky.social, @vmmchamberlain.bsky.social

We had a thoughtful discussion together, exploring exciting possibilities & most importantly, solutions!

4.6 Billion Years On, the Sun Is Having a Moment In the past two years, without much notice, solar power has begun to truly transform the world’s energy system.

In the past two years, with surprisingly little notice, renewable energy has suddenly become the obvious, mainstream, cost-efficient choice around the world.

It’s hot! 🥵
Living in a straw bale home in this weather would be crazy, right?
Wrong!
Straw changes its moisture content in sync with its environment.
As it does this, there is heat exchange at a cellular level within the fabric of the straw itself!
It keeps you cool in summer & warm in winter!

Schumacher said ‘Small is Beautiful - economics as if people mattered’
At Agile we agree but with a subtle difference! Instead we say:
Small is Beautiful - housing as if people & nature mattered!
And it turns out others agree!

The UK Enterprise Investment Scheme gives investors tax relief, no Capital Gains on exit & is Inheritance Tax free!
It is great for the investor, but more importantly, it supports innovative start-ups!
As we turn six, it has given us the rocket fuel to deliver low-carbon affordable homes quickly!

With perfect timing on the same day Rachel Reeves announced £39 bn for new homes, we signed an agreement for a significant investment. I’d like to say we planned this with the Chancellor, but I can’t! Instead it’s a synchronicity win!
The investment comes with a £25 m fund to pay to build new homes!
