24 September 2025 | Temple of Peace, Cardiff | In Person

We are delighted to announce the upcoming Rapid Rehousing Summit, which is being held on Wednesday 24th September at the Temple of Peace in Cardiff.

Hosted by Cymorth Cymru in partnership with the Welsh Government, the summit was conceived by the Ending Homelessness National Advisory Board’s Rapid Rehousing subgroup, with the aim of taking a solutions-focused approach to driving forward rapid rehousing and sharing good practice.

The event is aimed at people holding senior / strategic positions across local government, housing, third sector organisations and relevant public services. We are keen to have attendance from people working in a range of areas that intersect with this agenda, including strategic leads for capital development, housing supply, homelessness and support, as well as people responsible for driving rapid rehousing in their organisation.

View the programme in English and in Welsh.
