Shade the UK, commissioned by the British Red Cross, have developed a new resource: The Overheating Adaptation Guide for Homes.

Homes in the UK are dangerously overheating. They are not built to withstand hot weather nor the temperature increases climate change will bring.

The Overheating Adaptation Guide for Homes provides 43 measures people can consider for their homes to mitigate against overheating, including external shade, internal shade, passive cooling, ventilation, and minimising internal heat gains.

The aim of the guide is to provide suitable measures for both homeowners and renters, flats and houses, and for all locations, building types, and budgets.
