Ground Control

Housing Association leaders come together to explore the role sustainable green environments will play in unlocking Net Zero.

The Green Communities Summit is being held on 6th July, only two months before the Housing 2021 conference in Manchester where the #unlocknetzero stage is being launched. Ahead of Housing 2021, the virtual summit will consider what 2050 Net Zero challenges will mean for the housing sector ecosystem and the opportunity this target presents for Housing Association leaders to make a long-lasting green impact that helps the whole community to reap the benefits of their natural world.
