More work being done by members of our team from the Global Centre for Clean Air Research (GCARE) to advocate for indoor air quality (IAQ)  regulations in the United Kingdom.

With the Government soon set to launch its Clean Air Strategy, the All-Party Parliamentary Groups for Carbon Monoxide and Health hosted an event in Parliament earlier in mid-May 2025 that examined how the Strategy can set the necessary goals and framework for addressing indoor air pollution.

Chaired by Wera Hobhouse MP, the session considered how tackling indoor air pollution can be embedded into health and care policy – focussing on the importance of utilising data, communications between local services, and education to improve IAQ. Others who contributed include: Jonathan Kane (Kane International Limited), Stephanie Trotter, OBE (CO-Gas Safety), Professor Sarah West (SEI – Stockholm Environment Institute), Francesca Brady 🌬️ (GO AQS), Isabella Myers, and Professor Prashant Kumar (University of Surrey).
