CTBUH Chapter Event

CTBUH UK Chapter Presents: Building Safety and the Challenges for UK Construction—Where Are We Now?

Wednesday, 02 April 2025 | Charles Russell Speechlys 5 Fleet Place London EC4M 7RD | London

The CTBUH UK Chapter is delighted to invite CTBUH Members to an event hosted by Charles Russell Speechlys on Wednesday 2nd April in their London office. This event will take the form of a panel discussion of senior construction, real estate, and policy leaders, chaired by David Savage, head of Charles Russell Speechlys’ Construction, Engineering & Projects Group.

Discussions will include consideration of the new building control regime arising from the Building Safety Act 2022, and the implementation experience of the industry to date. We will also consider the topic of building safety more broadly in the context of the Grenfell Phase 2 Inquiry Report and the Government’s response to that report, the ambition of the Labour Government to build 1.5m new homes during this Parliament, and the other challenges being faced by UK construction at this time.

panelists:

Peter John OBE - Chairman at The Terrapin Group, and former Leader of Southwark Council 2010-20
Andreas Vassiliou - Development Director, Vistry
Matt Massey - Head of Project Management, Derwent London
Amanda Clack - Partner and Regional CEO, HKA and former President of RICS
Amy-Jane Farr – Head of Building Safety and Construction Compliance, Workman LLP
