Housing in the UK accounts for 27% of carbon emissions. 80% of the homes we will be living in by 2050 have been already built. To meet the UK targets of an 80% reduction in carbon emissions by 2025, we have to improve the performance of our existing housing stock.
Hounslow Homes manages around 16,000 homes for the London Borough of Hounslow and have always expressed an interest in refurbishing the stock to a high standard of energy efficiency. Hounslow Homes believes that protection of the environment is an integral part of good organisational practice. Through its Environmental Policy and Environmental Action Plan, it is committed to maintaining, and where possible, improving the quality of our environment for our tenants and leaseholders, for those who work for our organisation and for the wider community now and in the future
