What if developers didn’t just build homes — but built communities, hope, and long-term change?In this episode of Architects for Change, Jay Morton is joined by Tim Heatley, co-founder of Capital & Centric and one of the UK’s most progressive voices in urban regeneration. From flipping his first house in Salford to investing millions each week in socially conscious development, Tim’s journey is anything but typical.He talks about transforming overlooked towns like Farnworth, the power of retrofit, working with metro mayors, and founding initiatives like Regeneration Brainery and Embassy Village. Whether it’s tackling homelessness or rethinking what regeneration can mean, Tim shares an honest, energetic, and often surprising take on what the future of housing could — and should — look like.
