All our Networks and TaskforcesAbout Built Environment Network
The Built Environment Network provides networking opportunities and industry experience to help organisations to create and maintain a more inclusive environment. This network focuses on all aspects of inclusive design, when it comes to your buildings, facilities, estates and including health and safety.
The network enables businesses to:
- Improve disability awareness of those who work in and support the built environment.
- Define and share best practice for everyone.
- Learn from each other on how to influence suppliers and Landlords to deliver inclusive products and services.
- Network with organisations and suppliers to improve their inclusive built environment strategy.
Our meetings operate using the ‘Chatham House’ rule.
Our Networks and Taskforces are only open to Members and Partners. For dates of upcoming meetings visit our events calendar.
