Green Building Week [11th -15th of September] - Sustainability in Practice

This year's Green Building Week [11th -15th of September] marks the launch of Henry J Lyons' Sustainability in Practice in-house resources. Sustainability In Practice is an initiative to open and facilitate the HJL sustainability group’s cross practice conversations. Over the past year our sustainability group members have shared their green expertise, and investigated the role of climate conscious design for Henry J Lyons. We look forward to the next step of our collective journey, learning from our projects and tackling potential, challenges, as well as identifying successes.

To mark Green Week 2023 we have organised the following events.
