Status message

We are currently streamlining our processes, which means when we collect your rent via Direct Debit it will have a new account reference. This does not change the way in which we collect Direct Debits. If you pay between 16th – 22nd of the month your October payment will be taken later than planned.

Greenhouse Gas

Climate change is a global problem and there is increasing evidence that early and rapid reductions in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are needed to avoid the significant impacts of climate change.

Within the UK, Local Authorities produce a significant proportion of the UK's GHG emissions and so can have a direct influence over their management. Under the Climate Change Act 2008 the UK must reduce total GHG emissions by at least 80% from 1990 levels by 2050.

The Department for Energy and Climate Change (DECC) are requesting that each Local Authority publishes it's own greenhouse gas emissions report. This report will show the total tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent.
