Delivering Affordable London: Lessons from Kidbrooke

RIBA London is organising a panel discussion focused on large-scale social housing delivery in the Royal Borough of Greenwich, using the Kidbrooke Park Road North scheme (KPRN) as a case study.

This multi award-winning project provides an opportunity to bring together key stakeholders — including the local authority, architects, developers, and planning team — to reflect on the process of delivering high-quality, 100% affordable housing at scale.

The session will explore the journey from planning through to delivery, highlighting key challenges, decisions, and lessons learned.

Panel Contributors:

• John Nahar (RIBA London) & Abu Siddiki (RIBA South East London Architects Group) - Framing the wider discussion around affordable housing delivery, collaboration, and the role of architecture within London’s housing agenda
• Neill Campbell, BPTW Partner - Broader reflections on affordable housing and council housing delivery across London, including perspectives from the wider Kidbrooke Village context
• Simon Bayliss, HTA - Architectural design and delivery of the Kidbrooke Park Road North scheme
