CHC & Public Health Wales Online Workshop: Managing overheating risk and shaping the future of housing health
Overheating is no longer just a summer anomaly. It is a critical asset management challenge and a direct threat to tenant well-being. As we push ahead with decarbonisation and retrofit agendas across Wales, understanding and mitigating heat risk is becoming a core priority for housing associations.
Join us for an interactive workshop designed to share sector insights, discuss operational realities, and identify opportunities for influencing future policy, guidance or sector-wide best practice.
What we will cover:
Operational realities & best practice: What is triggering overheating in Welsh housing stock right now? Hear from housing association colleagues from across the sector to understand what problems are being experienced and what practical, immediate interventions are working on the ground.
A collaborative health approach: We will be joined by Public Health Wales, who will introduce a developing project focused on the health impacts of climate change, specifically looking at a new, practical risk-assessment framework. Listening to your experiences, this is your opportunity to share feedback on how a health-based risk tool can genuinely support your teams, ensuring it is easy to adopt, practical, and aligned with your day-to-day work.
