LiveWest: Creating Greener Futures Together

Sustainable homes, neighbourhoods and communities are at the heart of what it means to deliver a home for everyone

Working smarter

We are taking colleagues on our environmental journey, ensuring paper consumption and business miles are reduced, phasing out single use plastic at our offices and using environmentally friendly stationery.

Sustainable homes

We are committed to improving the energy performance of our existing and new homes. This runs alongside our core ambition to support our customers and address fuel poverty.

Shaping futures

We are working with customers and partners to ensure that sustainability lies at the heart of our organisation. We want to shape healthier futures across our communities. 

What we're doing

We will increase energy efficiency, reduce our carbon footprint and improve living costs for our customers. Whenever possible, we will influence specifications and design to ensure that the new homes we build are sustainable. We will work smarter and from office energy and electric vehicles through to our construction supply chain, we will create a greener future, together.
