Let's Talk Property - Battles with Broadband, featuring Guy Cocker

Thursday, June 22, 2023 • Duration 15:19

How well does your home broadband perform?

Guy Cocker, my guest today, reveals the multitude of frustrations caused by unreliable broadband speeds.

Unreliable internet means missing out on gigs and festivals - and with a summer of events and sport ahead of us - we don't want to miss our favourite shows. I can't wait for Wimbledon!

From buffering to lags, a lack of broadband speed causes issues for people on a daily basis. When multiple people are in the home at the same time, unreliable broadband can result in bickering, homework getting delayed, and for those working from home, project deadlines being missed.

EE unveils their most advanced broadband, with new FULL FIBRE 1.Gbps, delivering the fastest speeds and best reliability.

Our personal and professional lives depend on fully operational broadband. Research (RWB) shows that 30% of us have daily issues with speed.

Heat affects internet speed, servers and routers giving yet more misery to users.

If you're finding it difficult to work from home, or impossible to hand in assignments and projects to your school/college/employer, maybe it's time to make the change?

HOH: HELP OUR HEDGES

Season 623

Thursday, June 1, 2023 • Duration 19:30

The decline of UK hedgerows is contributing to the alarming loss of plant and animal species. A typical hedgerow encompasses over 2000 diverse species of plants and animals.

The People's Trust for Endangered Species (PTES) and ARLA farmers across the country are working together to redress the balance. We can also help at home, and make a difference by encouraging our children to get involved too.

My guests are Oliver Williams, Farmer, and Lizzie McLaughlin, Head of Commercial Content Solutions at Agriconnect, who both promote the idea that we can all get involved, whatever the size of our garden, and become 'Custodians of the Land'.

You don't need to be a farmer to become a landlord to a thriving population of diverse wildlife. You can create wildlife-friendly gardens and green spaces within your own garden, balcony, or local outdoor areas. Some simple ideas include introducing bee hotels, bee boxes, bee bricks and manage outside space to encourage the return of bumblebees, insects and hedgehogs.

How can you help to secure a brighter future for the remarkable wildlife we risk losing?

Simply - join in the conversation.

On today's show

'Tiny Batteries, Huge Risks' ...

How many children are treated as an emergency for swallowing batteries each year in our homes?

2,800 - that's 2,800 too many. And according to GOSH, 2 children die per year across the the country. This is avoidable. Today I find out from Emma Hammett (registered nurse, campaigner and Founder of 'First Aid for Life') how Duracell has found a replacement to make children spit them out.

Are you a parent, care-giver, grand-parent in Brighton & Hove? Then you'll want to know that

60% of Brighton & Hove parents say their child has been able to open devices exposing the coin batteries
11% of Brighton & Hove parents have no idea if these dangerous types of battery are lying in devices at home (you'll find them in remote controls, watches, calculators, electronic toys, key fobs, LED lights, monitoring devices and digital thermometers

Would you know what to do if your child ingested one of these batteries? Sadly, the danger is not limited to small children, but affects teenagers too. Check out Emma's website 'First Aid for Life' to gain the skills and confidence to help in a medical emergency - before it's too late.

'Expose those hidden moving costs'...

Phil Spencer, presenter, author, businessman and property investor, as well as co-presenter of the long-running Channel 4 series Location Location Location offers his tips on how to avoid unexpected or “hidden” moving costs as well as what it is that is still giving so many of us that drive to move, regardless of the current cost of living crisis.

Find out Jonathan's goals for the growth of his business, partnership with the National Land Information Service (NLIS) and how conveyancing can only get better with full integration of Anti Money Laundering (AML) and additional compliance systems.

Let's Talk Property with Damian Sullivan MRTPI PIEMA

Wednesday, April 27, 2022 • Duration 59:00

Why is ‘Planning’ so contentious when it comes to housing policy?

If you've been searching for the answer, Damian Sullivan, Senior Planning Manager at Sigma Homes Group in Horsham, has practical experience and ideas as to how the Planning System could be improved.

Explaining some of the major changes in Planning that have been introduced in the last 2-5 years, plus the Levelling Up Bill, and policy changes we should expect this Spring/Summer of 2022, Damian gives us an insight into the workings of an industry which is at the heart of brand new homes and strategic land acquisition.

We also take a detour around Local Council Planning Department resources, Environmental Impact Studies, and Appeals.

Damian is in agreement with me that the property and construction industries make fascinating career choices due to the variety of disciplines within. We should encourage more graduates and apprentices to explore the opportunities offered in both these industries.
