Welsh Zero Carbon Hub
A new initiative funded by the Welsh Government was recently launched to facilitate the sharing of best practice amongst social housing associations to cut carbon emissions from their housing stock. The ambition is to expand the resources to the private housing sector. The FMB will ensure members’ voices are heard, particularly when it comes to supply chain development and skills. If you have views on what needs to be done to prepare the building sector to retrofit social housing in Wales, get in touch with Ifan Glyn using the details below.
