U.o.B. Research Hub Helps UK Citizens Inhabit Healthier Homes
Experts at the Universities of Birmingham and Edinburgh are leading a major research project aiming to accelerate the creation of healthy, net zero homes across the UK where everyone enjoys clean air and comfort indoors.
Homes contribute about 14% of carbon footprint in the UK. Meeting the Government’s legally binding Net Zero target by 2050 makes it essential to retrofit the country’s 29 million homes.
Largest Ever UK Surgical Trial to Make Future Operations Safer
The largest surgical trial ever funded in the UK is set to open, which will see 26,000 patients recruited to test interventions that will make future operations safer.
More than £10m of funding from the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) has been awarded to the University of Birmingham to run an ambitious trial which aims to recruit 26,000 patients from 100 sites across the UK in the next five years.
Birmingham Bin Strikes - What to Expect
More than 350 workers voted for the industrial action in December over what Unite the Union called an "attack on their pay and working conditions" by employer Birmingham City Council.
The union said the strikes were a result of the authority's decision to "downgrade" about 170 roles, which would cost affected staff an average of £8,000 a year in salary, and that the council was not "listening" or "negotiating".
