T
he estates from which we deliver modern health and care services need to be comfortable and safe,
providing a supportive environment in which to recover and work. But buildings also need to do their bit
to achieve the efficiencies public services have been charged with achieving. And sustainability is the latest
buzzword, with the emphasis on ensuring estates, both old and new,
are operating well and are flexibile and futureproofed, reducing the overall impact they have on the environment. The NHS has been set a tough target
to reduce its carbon emissions by 80% by 2050 based on 2008 figures. This means estates and facilities
managers, and architects and construction professionals, need to consider the impact of developments and services on the environment at all stages. It is also having a huge impact on
the types of products coming onto the market. And you can find out more about this
challenge, and how the market is responding to it, at the third annual sustainable buildings and estates forum, which will be held at Whittlebury Hall in Northamptonshire on 20-21 June.
Speaking out The forum will feature a number of panel debates and keynote speeches providing an overview of the current marketplace and how companies can get involved, as well as giving delegates the opportunity to build lasting business relationships through a series of pre-arranged meetings. The one-and-a-half-day event also
includes a gala dinner and a number of opportunities for informal networking. This year’s keynote speakers will come
from a number of different sectors including health, education, commercial, leisure and retail, offering delegates a unique overview of the opportunities. They will be discussing ‘Accelerating
sustainable buildings and estates’; exploring the dearth of supplies and resources and how, as an industry, we

need to be urgently looking at ways of slowing this down before it is too late. Speaking after last year’s event, a
spokesman for Geyser Thermal Energy, said: “This was a very-worthwhile event for us and we look forward to working on several new, exciting projects as a result of the meetings we had over the two days. “The informal-yet-professional vibe
throughout provides an excellent networking opportunity and the quality of both project and supplier delegates makes for some fascinating conversations and new connections.” A delegate from Performance in
Lighting added: “This was my first forum in this format and I approached it with sceptical curiosity, but I must say I was pleased with the outcome and I will certainly consider this in the future. “It was good to hear from various
experts within their field and how our approach to the market should be adapted in the changing environment.” Project delegates last year included
Reach Homes, Tooley & Foster Partnership, and DSSR. For more information, or to
