HHB APPG: Making UK Homes and Buildings Healthy - What Are We Missing?

While government policy has rightly placed significant emphasis on reducing carbon emissions and improving energy efficiency, many of the factors that are essential to creating healthy indoor environments continue to receive insufficient attention. These include overheating and thermal comfort, indoor air quality and ventilation, lighting, acoustics, furniture poverty and other aspects that have a significant impact on health, wellbeing and quality of life.

The event will bring together policymakers, health experts and industry leaders to examine the policy gaps, explore the latest evidence, and discuss practical solutions for embedding healthier building design into future policy.
