Newman House Broch 14-2-19 Low Newman House DERWENT WAY, DERWENTHORPE, YORK, YO31 0RQ A superb development of high quality, environmentally friendly and energy efficient 1 & 2 bedroom apartments Background Derwenthorpe is a Joseph Rowntree Housing Trust development of attractive, affordable, eco-friendly family homes in a digitally inclusive, mixed-tenure community. 'Green' heating and hot water system Derwenthorpe was one of the first large-scale low carbon communities in northern England, meeting demanding targets for reduced energy and water usage. Its ‘green’ heating and hot water system is at the heart of the development. The community uses a district heating system, which means that instead of homes having their own boilers, heating and hot water is efficiently distributed to all homes by the predominantly biomass boilers in the village’s centrally located Energy Centre. The woodchip used in the biomass boilers burns with extremely low pollution effects on the environment (compared to traditional sources like coal and oil) and is sourced locally through both harvesting trees grown specifically for this purpose and recycling forestry thinnings. The Energy Centre generates hot water, which is distributed to homes through underground pipes and then passes through a Consumer Interface Unit to generate hot water for radiators, washing and bathing. Properties Derwenthorpe will eventually offer 489 high-quality environmentally friendly and energy efficient homes which have been expertly designed to be as innovative as they are practical. Careful designs mean this scheme will offer homes to suit the needs of all kinds of buyers, plugging the gaps in the current market with exciting and importantly environmentally conscious 'homes of the future'. The Seebohm Quarter is located off Fifth Avenue and takes its name from Benjamin Seebohm, second of the four sons of Joseph Rowntree. It comprises of a variety of two, three, four and five bedroom flats and houses available to rent and part-buy through JRHT or to outright purchase through David Wilson Homes. Each home has been designed with eco-friendly features including communal biomass boiler heating and a drainage system that prevents flooding. All the apartments have an open plan living/kitchen/dining area and an outside space whether that be a patio, Juliette balcony or winter garden.

  • Making a Sustainable Community: Life in Derwenthorpe, York, 2012–2018
    Making a sustainable community: life in Derwenthorpe, York, 2012–2018 by Deborah Quilgars, Alison Dyke, Alison Wallace and Sarah West This report presents the results of a six-year evaluation of Derwenthorpe, an urban extension of about 500 homes in York, developed by the Joseph Rowntree Housing Trust (JRHT) and David Wilson Homes. The research documented the extent to which it met its aims to create a socially and environmentally sustainable community ‘fit for the 21st century’. Making a sustainable community: life in Derwenthorpe, York, 2012– 2018 Deborah Quilgars, Alison Dyke, Alison Wallace and Sarah West This report presents the results of a six-year evaluation of Derwenthorpe, an urban extension of about 500 homes in York, developed by the Joseph Rowntree Housing Trust (JRHT) and David Wilson Homes. The research documented the extent to which it met its aims to create a socially and environmentally sustainable community ‘fit for the 21st century’. The research demonstrated that mainstream housing developers can successfully deliver sustainable homes and communities at scale, in particular delivering high-quality living environments. However, technical build issues and differential buy-in from residents means that environmental and social measures need to be built into the model as far as possible from the outset. The research involved an environmental survey and longitudinal qualitative interviews to document residents’ experiences over the period 2012–2018. It also compared Derwenthorpe with three other sustainable housing developments in England. Actions • Greater emphasis on the design, space standards and aesthetics of new developments should be incorporated into Government-level directives. • Housing providers must work with resident groups to set up inclusive governance structures to promote the long-term social sustainability of communities.

The House met at half-past Eleven o’clock Jane Ellison: The challenge of being serious about prevention is one for the entire health and social care PRAYERS system. We acknowledge that, like many parts of government, public health grants have had to absorb some of the fiscal challenge.

Despite that, local authorities will receive £16 billion in public health grants alone over the spending review period, but that is not the only way we invest in Oral Answers to Questions prevention.
