’Why do Healthy Homes and Buildings Matter?’: 10 Years, 10 Stories 📖 We are incredibly proud to officially launch our 10 at 10 Story Book at today’s Parliamentary Reception to celebrate 10 years of the Healthy Homes and Buildings APPG. Over the past decade, the Healthy Homes and Buildings APPG has worked hard to drive the agenda and shape the debate on what’s needed to ensure better quality homes and buildings. Whilst we have made progress, the reality in 2026 is that too many communities still face the consequences of cold, damp, poorly ventilated, and energy-inefficient housing. This special 10th Anniversary Story Book aims to unite support from across national, regional and local governments on the need to embed health and wellbeing principles in future homes and buildings for future generations. Each story highlights why this is essential to reducing costs to the NHS, boosting educational attainment, and helping communities thrive.
