Queens Park Avenues Healthy Homes
Warmer, healthier and more comfortable homes for Queens Park Avenues.
About the project
The Avenues are a special place, but some features of the historic homes don’t always meet modern expectations. Many residents experience damp and mould and find it difficult or expensive to keep their homes warm in winter
On top of this, understanding what home improvements are possible, deciding which ones to prioritise, and knowing who to trust - whether landlords or tradespeople - can be overwhelming.
The Council and Avenues community are working together to make it easier for everyone - renters and homeowners alike - get the improvements you need and want.
Find out what’s happening, explore guidance and support, and learn how you can get involved.
