About Southwark Council

Southwark is taking urgent action to make its environment clean, green and healthy. It has an ambitious plan for the whole borough to be carbon neutral by 2030. By taking action, it aims to reshape the borough into a better place for everyone. This will help deliver improvements in health, raise the standard of homes, create good green jobs and strengthen its communities.

How is the council using the money raised?

The money invested will help fund a range of projects from our climate programme. These measures are expected to include:

  • Moving the council’s biggest buildings away from gas, including new low-carbon heat pumps for our largest office.
  • Community-led energy projects that will tackle fuel poverty.
  • Creating more wild areas, habitats and green spaces in and around our much-loved parks.

All investments from Southwark Council are compliant with the Green Loan Principles - internationally recognised standards that are also used by the UK Government for its green investments products. They require that the money invested can only be used to fund eligible green projects.
