Treadgold House Pocket Park
We are installing a Pocket Park on Lancaster Green (opposite the Kensington Leisure Centre) at the end of June as part of our Respite offer.
This was co-designed with Treadgold House residents at an engagement event in May 2022. It is movable and designed to provide a space for people to work, relax or socialise in. This has been supported by the Mayor of London's Future Neighbourhoods 2030 Fund.

Treadgold House works now on site!
Lancaster West Neighbourhood Team is pleased to announce that the first phase of construction works at Treadgold House on Lancaster West are underway.
It will be the first block on the estate to go carbon-neutral.
United Living were awarded the contract. Energy efficient improvements being delivered include triple glazed windows, solar PV panels, non-combustible wall, floor, and roof insulation, mechanical ventilation with heat recovery, the removal of gas to be replaced with an Air Source Heat Pump, as well as comprehensive internal refurbishment.
As well as reducing the energy demand of the building, this work will mean residents benefit from substantially lower energy bills, reduced need for repairs and maintenance, better air quality, reduced noise from outside, and more comfortable homes.
This energy efficient retrofit is part of LWNT’s commitment to make Lancaster West model a 21st century model estate that is carbon-neutral by 2030.
Lancaster West Neighbourhood Team and Energiesprong UK have worked together to secure £1.5m of funding through the Mustbe0 project, funded by the Interreg NWE Programme through the European Regional Development Fund.

Treadgold House Emerging Preferences and Choices refurbishment results!
Lancaster West Neighbourhood Team is pleased to announce the results of the Emerging Preferences and Choices refurbishment survey which was sent to Treadgold House residents.
Residents chose a white façade as their preferred option for the external walls for their block.
The image give an idea of what Treadgold House will look like when the refurbishment works are finished.
Treadgold House is the first council-owned block to go carbon-neutral. United Living have been appointed to do the refurbishment which is expected to start before the end of the year.
A contractor will be providing a 30-year maintenance plan, which will include façade cleaning for these external walls.

Energy measurements in your home

Treadgold House residents have chosen to go forward with the Mustbe0 carbon-neutral refurbishment of the block! We now need to carry out energy performance measurements in homes to help make sure refurbishment works are carried out properly and to make sure refurbished homes are comfortable to live in. We will be in touch with residents in February to book appointments to carry out the first of these tests.
We will start by measuring the thermal performance of homes. This will help to understand how well they keep heat in. A company called Build Test Solutions will carry out the measurements for the Lancaster West Neighbourhood Team. To carry out the tests, a Build Test Solutions staff member will be visiting homes and installing sensors which will stay in place for 3 weeks.
The Treadgold House refurbishment is supported by the European Mustbe0 project, funded by the Interreg NWE Programme through the European Regional Development Fund.
