Our objective is to develop housing based community sustainability practices and initiatives.
Examples of what we do:

- contribute to discussions about good housing design and place-shaping
- deliver environmental sustainability training to residents to enable them to promote and advise on sustainability issues
- work with the Neighbourhood Management team and housing providers to promote community involvement in environmentally sustainable practices
- enable sustainable community management of the John Pounds Centre for the good of the whole community
- initiate new approaches to service delivery, e.g. the arts and well-being project and green travel plans
- create pilot projects to explore current issues, e.g. approaches to existing housing improvement
