Zero Carbon Placemaking
We are living in a generation of change and Thakeham believes it is our social responsibility to provide solutions and ideas on how neighbourhoods can thrive sustainably. Thakeham’s involvement in the prestigious NHS Healthy New Towns initiative paired with our innovative development layout prioritizing pedestrian and cycle access over vehicles and the provision of accessible electric charging points for both bike and car, this community will be a sustainable neighbourhood of the future.
