From transforming Westminster into a 'retrofit first' city to revamping Waterdale in Doncaster, urban landscapes are getting a makeover!

In a bid to transform Westminster, the City Council has introduced a groundbreaking 'retrofit first' policy focusing on affordable housing and sustainable upgrades.

By linking urban centers to enhance climate budgeting processes, the initiative integrates sustainability into governance structures. This innovative approach empowers cities to proactively tackle climate challenges and drive impactful change on a local level.
