Westmead

The Westmead project is the latest residential project for Westminster City Council for 65 new affordable homes set for completion by the end of 2025.

Developed on the site of the former Westmead Care Home, each home features private amenity spaces such as balconies or private gardens. The development also integrates improved green spaces, fostering a welcoming environment for both residents and the wider community. In addition, 121 new cycle spaces will be provided, supporting sustainable transport options in line with Westminster’s commitment to reducing carbon emissions.

The 6-storey building, designed by Architect Child Graddon Lewis, uses a mix of PV panels, exhaust heat pumps and strict air tightness measures to ensure that the homes provide maximum energy efficiency.

The project will be one of the first delivered by Westminster Builds, the Council’s own company created to help deliver its ambitious regeneration and development programme, and is Westminster City Council’s first housing scheme to target Passivhaus standards and is set to almost achieve the Passivhaus Plus benchmark.

CFS were delighted to supply Masonry Support and Reveal Plates to main contractor Willmott Dixon for use in the Westmead Project. At CFS, we’re committed to driving sustainability forward, and that’s why our Masonry Support is covered by an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) to provide transparent data on the environmental impact of the product through its lifecycle.
