Hammersmith & Fulham Council is creating a greener, cleaner and more sustainable future to support people and nature. Its top-rated climate and ecological strategy and action plan - developed in collaboration with residents - guides their ambitious journey to making H&F carbon net zero.

The council aims to raise £5 million through a series of investments which will help fund a range of projects from their climate action programme. These will include projects that can cut carbon emissions, as well as improving the local environment and helping residents adapt to the impact of the changing climate on its urban borough.

Hammersmith & Fulham Council is at the forefront of the green finance revolution. Investors know that their money is being invested in projects that will make a positive impact on our communities, and people’s lives.

Meanwhile, it means that the council can deliver climate and ecological projects cost-effectively, which will help save taxpayer money. It’s a rare win-win.

More about council investments

Why invest

To make a difference on climate change we need a green transformation across our entire society. Our council green investments are a unique way for anyone to support essential local climate action.

Look after your financial future

Our council green investments offer a valuable low risk, stable and flexible option that can help support your financial plans - whether you are growing your nest egg or want to generate an income.

Know what your money is funding

Our council green investments comply with the Green Loan Principles, which means that investors know exactly what green projects your money is being used to fund, and receive regular updates across the investment term.

Risks of investing

Rising costs, increasing demand for services, and cuts in central government funding have all put council budgets under strain. But investing in councils remains low risk due to the way they are regulated.
