Lizzie Le Mare reappointed to NLA Housing Expert Panel 2026

Delivering high-quality, affordable housing remains a critical challenge for London. The NLA housing programme serves as a leading forum for debate and innovation in housing design, delivery, and construction. It promotes solutions that cater to diverse lifestyles — from student accommodation to later-living homes with flexible care, and from high-rise towers to small, complex sites and large regeneration masterplans.

Bringing together voices from across the built environment to tackle key issues affecting people, place, and planet, we champion post-occupancy evaluations, intergenerational living, and deeper engagement with residents, youth, and communities.

The programme explores how legislative frameworks can support housing delivery, while also addressing affordability, social value, and the role of community engagement in shaping successful housing developments.

Lizzie is a Chartered Town Planner with a multidisciplinary background in planning, urban design and architecture. She has extensive experience of delivering housing led regeneration projects in complex urban environments. She prioritises understanding the impact her work has on people’s daily lives and believes in the importance of consultation and engagement.
