Hammersmith and Fulham Council has backed a significant £5 million green investment initiative aimed at empowering residents to invest in cleaner, greener projects and combat the climate emergency.
The H&F Green Investment initiative, described as the largest Community Municipal Investment of its kind, was formally commended by the Full Council during their meeting on Wednesday, January 28, 2026.
The motion, put forward by Councillor Rowan Ree and Councillor Florian Chevoppe-Verdier, highlighted the pioneering nature of the £5 million initiative. It aims to foster greater civic participation in environmental efforts by allowing residents to directly invest in projects that will yield tangible benefits such as improved energy efficiency, cleaner air, increased resilience against flooding, and reduced carbon emissions.
The council also welcomed the transparency, fiscal responsibility, and climate ambition demonstrated by these bonds, noting that they strengthen public trust and civic participation.
Officers and partners were commended for their work in establishing this innovative model, with the administration reaffirming its commitment to expanding sustainable investment to build a fairer, greener borough for all residents.
