Biography
I am a Visiting Professor at CASE, and currently PI on a ESRC/MHCLG project called ‘Insecure Lives’, on multiple insecurities and their impact on local growth. I am Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences, nominated by the Housing Studies Association, and Professor Emerita of Housing Policy, University of York. From 2011-16, I was Joseph Rowntree Professor of Housing Policy and Director of the Centre for Housing Policy at the University of York, but retired due to ill health. From 1994-2011, I was Lecturer in Housing at LSE, and spent some time in CASE. I have always focussed on social housing and neighbourhoods, and on their relationships with inequality.
