LANDAID

Every day of every year, thousands of young people in the UK find themselves homeless.

Many are forced to sleep in overcrowded hostels, on the sofas of people they barely know, or worse still, on the streets. Yet homelessness isn’t inevitable. It’s a problem that can be solved.

With the right support services and secure accommodation, we can prevent young people from becoming homeless and protect those who are. Unfortunately, it’s not that simple. Rising rents and reductions in benefit payments have had a negative impact on the country’s most vulnerable young people and organisations delivering critical services are struggling with an increase in demand. They desperately need investment to reach more young people.

That’s why we’re here. For over 30 years we have been bringing together remarkable businesses and individuals from across the property industry to support projects that provide life-changing accommodation for young people facing homelessness.

"I attended my first event (running) and found the experience highly enjoyable to meet friendly and likeminded people from the industry. Well organised and definitely a network I would recommend others join. I will definitely be back!"

Simon England | Harrison Drury Solicitors Preston

"Great event. Well run and well attended."

Ru Harris | Spatial Dimensions London

"The PGA Networking was my first Property Sports Network event, and certainly won't be my last! I had heard great things from my colleagues about the network, and this event in particular. The event was well organised with a mix of industry professionals from across the sector. I'd have no hesitation to attend or recommend future events!".

Isabelle Hosford | Pocket Living London

"I recently attended a yoga event. Not only was it a great chance to keep fit and network, we also had a guided tour of the incredible venue. The class was suitable for all levels, so there was no need to be nervous about ability. I look forward to attending the next event, I’m hoping to be able to make it to the self-defence class next time."

Sam Wilson | Cascade Communications London

"I've taken part in several events organised by Property Sports Network,  including runs at MIPIM I've found them to be an accessible and fun way of making new contacts in the industry. Always good to meet people with similar interests and enjoy a well-deserved drink afterwards, especially after the night run in Richmond!"

Philip Waind | Waind Gohil + Potter Architects London

"We had a great time hosting two events. It gave us a great opportunity to showcase our work in a fun setting whilst connecting with lots of likeminded people. We are looking forward to hosting the Property Sports Network again soon."

Peter Fenwick | Spatial Dimenions London

"Recently attended the PGA golf at Wentworth with Property Sports Network. I took a colleague and two clients, we all had a brilliant time. Spent the day chatting in a really casual environment, based around high quality sport in a superb setting. I find this really helps build strong connections with our clients. I'd definitely recommend PSN to anyone who loves sport and is in the property industry."

Emily Gabb | NLA London

"MIPIM has the reputation of being networking fuelled by glasses of rosè outside Cafe Roma and the Property Sports Network offer a great way to challenge that perception with a healthy start to the day. The runs provide a beautiful view of Cannes before all the hussle and bustle of the day starts and are an excellent way to meet new people in a relaxed, informal way, while getting some exercise in. I attended 3/4 of the runs this year and find them to be a great way to prioritise your mental and physical health for the day ahead at what can be a very intense event. I would reccommend these events to anyone attending MIPIM, particularly for first timers or those who are looking to clock up a few miles while still getting in some networking."

Chris Kirkland | City of Wolverhampton Council Wolverhampton

"I've been taking part in the networking runs for many years, starting at MIPIM. The events have continued to grow year on year and this year at UKREiiF were really well attended. Always well organised, enjoyable and a great way of meeting new people, networking and starting the day in the best way possible."

Mandisa Khabo | Greystar London

"Well organised event, I was a bit worried what the running pace would be. However it was steady and no one was left behind. The steady pace made the conversation easier. Great to meet companies from all areas of the property sector and it turned out our business were already dealing them."
