The Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme (PSDS) remains a key pillar of the UK’s strategy to achieve net zero emissions by 2050. Since its launch in 2020, the scheme has allocated billions of funding to public sector organisations, helping them reduce carbon emissions through energy efficiency upgrades and low carbon heating solutions. This can be seen through various projects procured through LHC.

We are delighted to welcome Rory Evans as the new Regional Director at LHC, overseeing the Midlands, London, and South East region.

At LHC, we are proud to support our employees in giving back to their communities. As part of our social value commitment, every team member receives 1.5 paid volunteer days each year to dedicate to a meaningful cause.

Damp and mould in social housing have been a growing concern, particularly after the tragic death of two year old Awaab Ishak in 2020, which was linked to prolonged exposure to mould in his home. In response, the UK government introduced Awaab’s Law, setting quicker response times for landlords to address damp and mould issues.

The UK government’s Warmer Homes Local Grant 2025 presents a vital opportunity for local authorities to tackle fuel poverty and improve energy efficiency in low income households. This guide explains how councils can maximise this funding to deliver meaningful change for residents while meeting decarbonisation targets. 

To enhance fire safety and protect vulnerable residents, new regulations have been introduced by the UK government requiring care homes to install sprinkler systems. These changes are set to impact both newly constructed and existing care home facilities. 

At the end of 2024 and the start of 2025, Steve Fed our Technical Support Manager for the Midlands, participated in two inspiring volunteering sessions with STAA. STAA is a charitable organisation based at the historic St Ann’s Allotments in Nottingham.

DIIC was born from witnessing the challenges my 17-year-old daughter faced while trying to find her place in the construction industry, a space that is still overwhelmingly male-dominated and often inaccessible to young women, particularly women of colour.

At our company, giving back to the community is an important value, and our recent charity volunteer day at the Harlington Scout Group Headquarters was a perfect example of that commitment in action.

 The Harlington Scout Group headquarters, had not been refurbished for over 20 years, and our team was eager to help give it a much needed refresh.
