As part of its ongoing energy efficiency works in Rhyl, SBS has engaged with North Wales Training to provide work experience opportunities for local residents. The initiative has already supported 10 individuals and has helped a number of them to secure lasting employment.
SBS is pleased to be a sponsor of the 2022 ‘Impact on the Community Awards’, hosted by the social housing provider Trent & Dove.
2022 will mark the 16th year of the awards, which celebrate individuals and organisations that have helped to transform lives, homes and communities in the region.
The awards evening will take place in May and will feature nine categories in all.
SBS teams are reporting good progress on the Wychavon District Council Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund (SHDF) Demonstrator scheme – a project that involves delivering multiple energy efficiency measures to 34 low-rise properties.
Part of the project focuses upon a series of bungalows in Uttoxeter, managed by the social housing provider Trent & Dove. Another element entails improvements to a number of flats in Birmingham, owned by the Trident Group housing association. The scheme as a whole is due to continue until the summer.
SBS has a long-standing working relationship with Rykneld Homes and, currently, we’re delivering energy efficiency improvements to over 70 Reema Non-Traditional Properties.
The work has principally involved fitting external wall insulation, together with associated adaptations. It has enabled a growing number of residents to enjoy warmer homes and reduced bills. We were therefore very pleased to receive a kind email from local tenant, Jackie Foster, who said:
As previously reported, we are continuing a long-standing relationship with the social housing provider Rykneld Homes. Part of the work we are currently delivering in Derbyshire includes retrofitting solid wall insulation systems to a large number of Airey and foam slag residential properties.
