On 25 February 2026, Capsticks and DTP consultants hosted a roundtable in London bringing together senior leaders from housing associations, local authorities and sector specialists to confront one of the most pressing issues in housing today: the escalating crisis in temporary accommodation. The discussion highlighted both the scale of the challenge and the potential for coordinated, systemic solutions.

While the problem is multifaceted, rooted in constrained supply, rising demand, regulatory rigidity and funding gaps, the roundtable produced striking consensus on the areas where intervention could be most transformative.
