So pleased we can announce this after a huge amount of effort. And of course delighted that placemaking, design and sustainability are centre stage. Thanks to all the internal and external people who helped in the drafting & the deep thinking before the drafting even started.
It’s here. We’re pleased to share our updated strategic plan with you. It sets out our vision, as the government’s housing and regeneration agency, to create high quality homes and thriving places across England. Learn more: bit.ly/3OcrqCs #HomesEnglandSP

Large glazing is justified on views & lighting. Yet the reality is different for the occupants of those buildings. Apart from high a/c use, to prevent high solar gains & glare, blinds are fully drawn. Where are the views then? #climateresponsive design #shading #thermalcomfort

They also created comic strips explaining how protest can be used to protect our environment and combat climate change xitter.cf/MarkDJacks1/status/159…
Great afternoon @GroveParkSE12 planting new trees (and seeing some great art!) with @Wild_Rangers, who do such fantastic work on conservation and nature recovery in the community, and vital work to educate the next generation about our natural world.
