Bricks & Water: Building resilience for England’s homes

Policy Connect is proud to launch its latest report, Bricks & Water: Building resilience for England’s homes, with the Westminster Sustainable Business Forum. 

The report calls for urgent action to ensure that new homes are water efficient, resilient to flooding and dispose of surface water sustainably. 

Building on the success of their 2018 report into water and housebuilding, Policy Connect and the Westminster Sustainable Business Forum (WSBF) has recommended a practical set of measures to make new and existing homes more adaptable to adverse effects of climate change, including the reduced availability of drinking water and the increased risk of flooding.
