Great to reflect on two dynamic days at our quarterly Consortium Meeting with @transforming-homes.bsky.social , held at Cardiff University. Day 1 was all about hands-on collaboration and charrette simulation. Day 2 focused on progress, alignment, and next steps. Thanks to all who made it inspiring!

Great to visit a home retrofitted as part of the #HAPS initiative. We did not only get to learn about the great work being delivered by the Centre for a Low Carbon Built Environment, Cardiff University, but got inspired as we move forward in the delivery of our #TransformingHomes demo homes.
Our team visited the Margam Open House Retrofit, part of the #HousesasPowerStations (HAPS) funded by Neath Port Talbot County Borough Council. Two adjacent #homes showcase real whole house #retrofit of social #housing. Pre/post-retrofit monitoring supports data-driven decisions to improve wellbeing.
