Housing for Health and Value

As part of our Sustainable Designs on You Programme, Sust. will be running a number of Training Courses throughout May and June 2008.

Full Day Course
Dundee 13 May/ Inverness 19 May/ Edinburgh 30 May / Glasgow 18 June

Evening Course (over two evenings)
Edinburgh 28 & 29 May / Glasgow 16 & 17 June

Everyone recognises the importance of sustainability, but the implications are not necessarily well understood. And while many housing associations have taken some steps to develop sustainability policies for procurement and maintenance, still not enough is being done.

This course has been specifically designed to go beyond the usual sustainability ‘awareness raising’ approach, to attempt to address key delivery and ongoing operational issues in housing. Thus, Sustainable Designs on You focuses on the elements required to create thriving communities with enduring appeal and the roles of good quality design, maintenance and user engagement in delivering successful places.

The seminars will appeal to housing association finance, development, maintenance and management staff and committee members, private housing developers and local government with an interest in sustainable housing.
