In the summer of 2009 CABE invited sponsors to come forward to support the Sustainable Places programme from autumn 2009 to autumn 2010.
We are delighted to announce that two sponsors have been identified and we are pleased to be working with them, though as a Non Departmental Public Body, CABE does not endorse the products or services of these companies in any way.
Bringing together innovative solutions from across different sectors and disciplines is a key aim of the sustainable cities programme.
The development of sustainablecities.org.uk has been made possible by the support of the strategic advisory group, the core cities and the private sector sponsors. CABE is grateful for their contributions during 2007 to 08 and would wish to thank them all for their commitment and enthusiasm for the project.
The core cities' contributions have been invaluable in shaping the resource for colleagues in local authorities facing similar problems across the country.
While the resource is aimed at local authorities, the guidance and insight from our private sector sponsors has helped us broaden its perspective.
Thanks to the members of the strategic advisory group overseeing the programme who have been more than generous with their time and thoughts.
We are grateful to the Tyndall Centre for climate change research at Newcastle University for reviewing the content of the website.
