In a #healthyhomes APPG, interesting to hear furniture fire retardant chemicals come up. At one point I had to chose between scaling up my small upholstery business and returning to energy efficiency, and the fear of working with the chemicals impregnated in upholstery materials deffo played a part.

Delighted to hear #neurodivergence included in summaries of vulnerabilities in both APPGs I’m at this evening on #fuelpoverty / #healthyhomes. It’s missing in #ConsumerProtectionReform, but is a factor both in consumer need for #retrofit and how programmes are designed. Any good reads on this?
