Eurocell urges government to outline clear decarbonisation plan for social housing
Eurocell is urging the government to outline its vision and strategy for the decarbonisation of social housing, emphasising the need for a clear funding package, streamlined access to funds, and a pathway to increase the number of skilled workers in the industry.
The call follows a recent survey of social housing professionals, conducted before the general election, which delivered a critical assessment of the previous government's approach.
