Aico Partners with the Healthy Homes Hub to Promote Healthier Homes

We are delighted to announce that we will be extending our partnership with the Healthy Homes Hub, a UK-based initiative dedicated to transforming social housing by providing research, insights, and practical solutions to create healthier, safer homes for all residents.

The Healthy Homes Hubs’ focus is on ensuring the homes that we live in do not make us ill, with an aim to ensure that every home is a healthy one. To be able to develop a comprehensive knowledge base with input from the worlds of academia, health and housing, they need financial support. The Healthy Homes Hub provides vital information to housing providers for free as they believe it is too important for it to be inaccessible due to cost.

This new support from Aico is going to help the Healthy Homes Hub to increase their curation and sharing of knowledge via their website, podcast, masterclasses, reports and events programmes. Alongside supporting some of their leading action learning projects, such as the prevention of childhood respiratory illnesses in homes, as well as the expansion of their focus on the question of air quality in housing.

Jenny Danson, the Chief Executive of the Healthy Homes Hub, commented, “Deliberately, what we are trying to do is ambitious. And when you take on ambitious projects, you need strong backers. Aico have been with us since the start and shares our vision to help make our homes and living environments healthier. We are excited to extend our partnership with them, which will allow us to do more things, but more importantly, bring their knowledge and insight into our existing programmes and help amplify the importance of health in the home for all.”

Dan Little, Relationship Director at Aico commented “The health of the home is so important not just to the resident and landlord but to wider society as well. Our business is focused around safety in the home and that includes protecting the health of residents, so we are delighted to be working more closely with the Healthy Homes Hub and support its ambitions to help ensure the social housing sector build and operate healthier homes.”
