Good luck to all the Councillors I know standing for re-election today. Thanks for the public service you have given over the last term and hopefully the campaigning you have done brings you the result you deserve #LocalElection2023

Inspiring to hear the brilliant Chris Cutforth talk about the @SwanseaCouncil journey to net zero through their housing programme. From Passivhaus to the Swansea standard. A huge amount of learning for all and suspect there will be even more visitors to Swansea to see this work
The next speaker stepping up to the podium at the APSE Scotland Building and Housing Seminar 2023 is Chris Cutforth from Swansea Council 🏴 and he’s speaking on The Swansea Standard and delivering energy efficient homes @apseevents #apsescot
Merry Christmas to all the local government workers who are keeping the country moving today by gritting the roads, delivering meals, home and residential care. I hope you get home in time to have a meal with your family at some point #localgov
