Last week, our Director of Assets, Jacqui Campbell, joined an expert panel at the #UnlockNetZero Live Event in London, all united by a shared mission: decarbonising homes and creating a sustainable future. Jacqui shared our journey on the road to net zero, emphasising our focus on getting all our existing customer homes to EPC C by 2025, five years ahead of the government's target, and the importance of getting it right from the start. The panel, chaired by Adrian Hussain from CHIC Ltd, brought insightful discussion with Andrew Sutton at Sero, Nick Beard at LHC Procurement Group, Paul Norman at Clarion Housing Group and Antoine Pellet at HACT. It was a wonderful event and together, through collaboration and innovation, we can achieve our ambitions 🌎 #NetZero #Decarbonisation #UKHousing
