BE Sustainable Episode 8: Can We Solve the Wellbeing Crisis, Pt.2 - w/ Jason Ratcliffe

Do we understand the impact the built environment has on our physical and mental health? Jason Ratcliffe, TedX Organiser, founder of The Home Health Expert and alumni of UCEM, doesn’t think so. For part two of our three-episode feature with Jason on the BE Sustainable Podcast, we take the previous episode’s topic of the built environment’s impact on wellbeing and explore it on a national scale. What does building well actually mean, and how can wellbeing be implemented through regulation into the building lifecycle?The topics discussed in this episode include:- What does building well actually mean?- Does the government need to get involved?- How can we start to bring some ownership to the problem?- Has there been movement in the right direction?Listen to the podcast via:- Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ucem/id1524980861 - Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3Czk2mZlZmknjUZfwLmLTa  - YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/universitycollegeofestatemanagement  GuestsJason RatcliffeJason Ratcliffe is a Chartered Surveyor and an alumni of UCEM, where he completed a Master's Degree in Real Estate in 2020, and has since been active with the institution as a member of both the Student & Alumni Sustainability Committee and our Responsible Futures Working Group.Jason has emerged as a prominent thought leader in both sustainability and wellbeing.
