How we do it

By bringing together cutting-edge technologies and materials, we create environments that build communities from the ground up and improve the lives of people who live in them.

Together, we have the skills and the scale to build world-changing, sustainable living solutions effectively and efficiently. We work with governments, NGOs and private sector companies to deliver sustainable projects globally that stand the test of time. We believe in a world that nourishes and nurtures its communities – that’s why we devise and deliver projects that improve people’s lives and enable them to thrive for generations to come.

How we do it

SHS brings together a wide-range of skills and innovative technologies to create affordable, sustainable living solutions for the developing world. This combines a range of core capabilities: housing, energy, water and disease prevention.

Housing

Communities all over the world urgently need safe, affordable housing. Responding to this, SHS combines cutting-edge, sustainable building techniques to deliver housing solutions at rapid speed and massive scale. To achieve it, we use technology that allows us to build in record time. In doing so, we are able to answer some the biggest challenges that face the developing world.

How we do it: We run Suite Living, which delivers secure, cost-effective student friendly environments. Created out of the realisation that hundreds of thousands of students globally are living in sub-standard accommodation as a result of landlord’s negligence, Suite Living offers safe living campuses to enhance student productivity and university experiences.

Energy

Each corner of the globe is in need of green, sustainable energy sources. SHS works with a range of partners to create clean energy plants and projects – from wind farms to solar parks and photovoltaic power stations. We invest in long term renewable energy sources and we work around the world to assist localised communities to become 100% self-sufficient and self-sustaining.

Working in harmony with the world’s natural energy source, we are able to build green energy solutions directly into housing projects – creating fully integrated and sustainable solutions. How we do it:

  • We run WWRE (Worldwide Renewable Energy), and provide investment in renewable energy sources including Wind, Photo Voltaic, Waste to Energy and Tidal. All projects enhance local communities sustainability, whilst at the same time we are assisting small island nations to become 100% self-sufficient in the generation of energy.
  • We work with MYRA Investments, a firm dedicated to managing, investment and directing capital into renewable energy power generation projects in emerging markets. MYRA Investments,

Water

By 2030, half of the world’s population will face water scarcity. In response, SHS has committed to a clear vision: making water independence a reality for the entire world. We are proud to already offer safe, environmentally sustainable water at all of our projects, which gives communities independent control of their supply.

The inability to access clean and safe drinking water is a fundamental barrier to human progress. Dirty water brings sickness, hinders school attendance and inhibits people from reaching their full potential. That’s why we work with partners to create technology and techniques that increases access to clean water. We work with:

  • Desolenator, a water technology company that makes clean water universally available and affordable. Its integrated patented system combines the thermal and electrical energy from a PV panel, with a process of heat exchange to produce pure water. As such, the Desolenator is completely energy independent. With support from its partners, Desolenator’s projects deliver the technology to vulnerable communities that struggle to access clean water on a daily basis. Desolenator

Disease Prevention

SHS protects people across the world. Mosquito-borne diseases, such as malaria and Zika, remain a prominent problem in countries worldwide. SHS has a solution which can protect its projects and the communities within them from these insects and the danger they pose.

We work with:

  • VectorCide is an innovative coating which can be applied to buildings to protect people from insects carrying diseases such as malaria and Zika. The Vectorcide coating is tested by The London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, and case studies include application to the wall of mud huts in Zambia and reported success of the product.
