  • Jan 2007 - Present

  The Good Homes Alliance was established in 2007 and now has over 70 members that include, architects, planners, developers, universities, local authorities, urban designers, consultants, building professionals and suppliers. Our aim is to promote and encourage the building of quality sustainable homes and communities and to transform the whole of mainstream UK house building into a sustainable endeavour. We plan to do this via collaborations with industry and government, creating active knowledge exchange networks, best practice sharing, running events, lobbying for change, partnering on research, commissioning publications and holding conferences. The GHA currently is focussing on three main themes: Measures to improve health & well-being, especially reducing the risk of overheating in new homes. Identifying routes to achieve zero carbon or carbon positive housing. Furthering the delivery of housing built to enhanced sustainability housing standards Helping to address the housing crisis by exploring alternative housing delivery models.
