Innovations in Air Quality

04 September 2019

Aether and Air Quality Consultants are pleased to be working with Guy’s and St Thomas’ Charity to identify cutting edge innovations that could be used at the local level to reduce air pollution over the next 5-10 years.  Guy’s and St Thomas’ Charity is an independent, urban health foundation working with Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust and others to improve health in the London boroughs of Lambeth and Southwark, and beyond.

The new project will identify and prioritise a broad range of potential air quality innovations including those which involve behaviour change to reduce emissions and exposure. The project is part of a package of work being undertaken for the charity in order to build their understanding of air quality and enable them to determine the focus of a future programme of work.
