Building Safer Facades after Grenfell - a Talk from Peter Apps

Join us at the Material Source studio in Manchester for an insightful talk by Peter Apps, the acclaimed journalist and author of the award-winning book 'Show Me the Bodies,' which delves into the Grenfell disaster. Peter, who highlighted the risks of combustible cladding just a month before the tragedy, will share powerful stories and crucial lessons that every architect and specifier should know. Expect to explore important topics like the implications of the Building Safety Act, the significance of façade material choices, and how to evaluate product safety. Plus, you'll get a glimpse into the future challenges of creating safe and sustainable housing. This relaxed event is a fantastic opportunity to connect with fellow professionals in the facades, construction, and architectural fields. Enjoy a light lunch and network with peers while engaging in meaningful discussions. Doors open at 11:30, and we look forward to seeing you there!
