Homebuilding charity Habitat for Humanity Great Britain has launched a new blueprint for converting disused office and retail space into social housing, after completing two such conversions in the borough of Barking and Daghenham.
The charity, the UK arm of the group associated with former US president Jimmy Carter, today launched an app for people to identify empty office and retail spaces that could be turned into homes. It also launched a new tool kit, allowing other groups to replicate its conversions.
