IT'S TIME TO ACT NOW! My opinion piece in @FuturebuildNow Newsletter. I make a case for robust legislation & incentives nurturing the massive opportunity that is the adaptive #retrofitindustry. I also discuss why I should be the next @RIBA President

“Brexit is a massive blow to Britain's prestige, economic options, and influence in the world.
You have to fight back - words I used the day after the referendum itself.
The fight back starts here.”
