## Description

The work completed through these tenders will inform the design and manufacturing work within the CHARMproject, a project which is supported by the EU Interreg North-West Europe and Accord Housing Association\. CHARM stands for Circular Housing Asset Renovation & Management and it aims to reduce the amount of waste inthe housing construction sector\. The building sector is responsible for more than 60% of resource use in Europe,with more than 30-50% of material use taking place in the housing construction sector\. The CHARM project is a new development of 12 one bedroom homes between Edward Street, Redditch and railwayline\. The design of these aims to create plastic free homes, which will apply timber frame construction, allowing foreasy assembly, disassembly and re-assembly and re-use of components and thus relocation in case housingdemands drops, whilst avoiding the use of heavy weight concrete and traditional construction methods that do notlend itself easily for prevention of downcycling\. Accord Housing Association will minimize the use of plastic duringthe construction process\. We will not allow any unauthorised plastics to enter the CHARM site\.
