Southway Housing Trust owns and manages almost 6,000 homes in the North West of England. Following Greater Manchester’s climate emergency declaration, the trust pledged to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2038. This required Southway to set out a strategy to decarbonise its housing portfolio and business operations.
Anthesis supported Southway Housing Trust to develop a detailed zero carbon strategy. The strategy sets out a pathway to remove the 30,000 tonnes of carbon emitted through their properties and operations, and to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2038.
The strategy includes an in-depth analysis of the current emissions produced by the organisation’s operations and housing stock as well as the identification of six priority areas and actions for the next five years.
