Welcome to 1.5m New Homes, the Local Government Challenge, sponsored by Red Loft and Bugler Developments.

Attracting talent is a big challenge for councils delivering new homes, so for our regular segment on starting a career in public sector housing, we spoke to some of that talent: Ealing Council’s Alison Mayer and Esra Abd Elrahman talk us through how they developed the skills needed to move a project - regenerating the council’s own office car park at Perceval House, into potentially 150 new homes - through the planning process.
