The Social Housing Tenants’ Climate Jury saw 30 social housing tenants from across the North meet online over 10 weeks between July and September 2021. The Jury explored tenants’ views on retrofit, their opinions of specific measures, and their preferences for how these kinds of interventions should be undertaken in their homes and neighbourhoods. They also had the chance to say what information they need before, during, and after the retrofit process to use low carbon heating technology confidently.

The question raised to the jury was:

“How can tenants, social housing providers, and others work together to tackle climate in our homes and neighbourhoods?”

The project was led by Northern Housing Consortium who represent the views of housing organisations in the North of England.
