🏗️ The 2024 UK Budget is shaping the future of our built environment, with new tax policies and green energy incentives impacting construction and infrastructure. While sustainability remains a focus, the effects on investment and project costs will be key for the sector to watch. What do you think—are these changes enough to meet net-zero goals? #UKBudget #BuiltEnvironment #Sustainability

The skills of today’s built environment experts are vital for a net-zero future by 2025! 🏢🌍 25% of the UK's carbon emissions come from the built environment – but that’s changing!

From retrofitting buildings with energy-efficient solutions to creating smarter, greener spaces. We’re proud to work with the forward-thinking organisations and individuals at the heart of this transformation.
