This ⬇️ A rising block tariff approach has the potential to both support struggling households, deliver affordable warmth and it's associated health benefits, and incentivise energy efficiency investment all in one go. It's the sort of radical policy shift we need www.theguardian.com/business/202...

YHCC Chair Asif Husain-Naviatti writes about a recent Commission visit to #Calderdale in West Yorkshire, and the benefits and opportunities that are coming out of the community response🏘️ www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/opinion... @calderdale.bsky.social @cvclt1.bsky.social @connecthousing.bsky.social

Ever considered an apprenticeship? For #NationalApprenticeshipWeek 2026 we've been speaking to our apprentices to find out why they chose this route and if they'd recommend it to others. Read more below!

Kicking off 2026 in #Calderdale, where our first meeting on 28 January took us to #Todmorden to recognise the outstanding #community work across the borough from tackling #flooding to making buildings resilient and fit for the future🏘️ Read more: yorksandhumberclimate.org.uk/news/news/co...

Today we are in #Bradford celebrating the multitude of individuals, communities & organisations who are driving positive change across Y&H. At this year’s gathering, we're delighted to be joined by other climate groups & commissions – to connect with each other and build on our shared ambitions.

I submitted a planning application for a new housing scheme with car free streets between homes and separate parking courts. Highways told us it didn't meet their "design standards" and we were told it would be rejected. We now have a scheme with a road in front of every home... 😔

On the one hand, we have research which shows children need safe, welcoming streets for play - and on the other, research which shows the deadly risk posed to children by SUVs. Politicians and policymakers need to join the dots. bsky.app/profile/alis...

Individuals and families living in supported housing rely on these services to help keep their independence, regain their confidence and feel safe, happy, and secure. #StartsAtHome

Why would you take the plane when a train goes that fast? You arrive directly in the city center, and there's no hour long security check. Please @ec.europa.eu tax kerosene and use the money to lower the price of rail.

Scroll your phone and you’ll see a London of fear and decline. Walk its streets and you’ll find a city where difference is a strength and communities look out for one another. The reality will outlast the fiction.

In my 20+ years experience developing as a small housing association housebuilder, @pmsmith.bsky.social analysis here is spot on. www.housingtoday.co.uk/comment/gove... Layer upon layer of requirements hike up the cost and risk => fewer homes being built. @matthewpennycookmp.bsky.social please note

And here are some pictures to record the visit to Lily Close in Halifax with @katedeardenmp.bsky.social last week. The weather that afternoon was lovely which helped show off the new homes and their beautiful Pennine surroundings! @connecthousing.bsky.social #ukhousing

Enjoyed showing off @connecthousing.bsky.social new zero-carbon affordable homes in Halifax to @katedeardenmp.bsky.social this afternoon. Talked heat pumps, air tightness, MVHR, PV panels & accessibility, but also impressed with the build quality and spacious houses. Photos to follow... #ukhousing

Something we just ❤️ to see 🌿

Solar PV panels going on my roof today, supplied through the @westyorkshireca.bsky.social Solar Collective Buying scheme. Linked to the new 10kW battery, I'm looking forward to #saving £££s on my energy bills. A good price, quality kit and a friendly install team. @tracybrabinmayorwy.bsky.social

Improving the energy efficiency of our homes and switching to low carbon heating is a positive e thing. We need to talk more about the benefits - health being top of the list. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Enjoyed being Lisa's +1 this evening visiting the Preview of Christmas at #Harewood, here in Leeds. Surprisingly delightful and magical festive display created by Davy and Kristin McGuire. Do go and visit - you won't be disappointed.

Great write up of the fantastic creative cultural scene we have here in the place I'm proud to call my home. #GOC #Yorkshire www.theguardian.com/culture/2024...

Pete Apps' post ahead of the publication of the Grenfell report is well worth reading. Pete's journalism on this issue has been groundbreaking and exemplary. Few others understand the intertwined failures of state, regulation & commercial interests to the depth he does. (I must get Pete on here...)

For #StartsAtHome Day, we spoke to Stefaniia, who told us how supported housing helped her to feel safe and like she "had something to count on" after moving alone from Ukraine to the UK. www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0XB...

It's #StartsAtHome day, where we celebrate the positive impact that supported housing has had on lives & communities across the UK. We spoke to Thomas, one of our residents, about his experiences. Watch the interview over on our YouTube channel (TW: suicide): youtu.be/6QEQc6c82og

Supported housing is vital and needs to be at the heart of long term planning. #StartsAtHome
