Partnerships

Green Homes

Working with Black Country Housing Group, Sandwell Council, Sandwell Primary Care Trust, Accord in partnership will manage a training and installation programme to retrofit green technology to hundreds of public sector and owner occupied homes in the next few years. This will not only ensure residents can heat their homes more easily and more cost-effectively, but it will also see the creation of jobs and training and a reduction in the carbon footprint of the area.
