Our latest thirty second radio advert invites you to discover the NSBRC and find out how we can help people create their perfect home. The advert’s script is based on our recent animated TV commercial, and is on air throughout February and March 2025.
We chose Times Radio as our preferred station as we know listeners are well informed and keen to know the latest on relevant topics such as housing supply, economic conditions and environmental issues.

We received this blog from longstanding exhibitor, Fleming Homes and found the piece inspiring, and wanted to share this with you. We hope this offers encouragement as you embark on your homebuilding project.
"Do not wait until the conditions are perfect to begin. Beginning makes the conditions perfect." Alan Cohen*
Alan Cohen's quote captures a powerful truth that’s particularly relevant to self-building. When the housing market feels uncertain, when interest rates continue to feel elevated in comparison with the record lows of 2020-2021, or when material prices fluctuate, it’s tempting to put the brakes on our plans - to hold off until things calm down.
Since 2014, our award-winning visitor centre (The National Self Build & Renovation Centre / NSBRC) has been owned and operated by ‘The Homebuilding Centre Limited’, an employee-owned business. We welcomed our first visitors to the NSBRC in 2007 and, eighteen years on, we remain the UK’s only permanent exhibition centre designed specifically to meet the needs of individual self-builders, renovators and home improvers.
