We’re always warning people about the risks of selling a property without carrying out proper checks for Japanese knotweed, and our latest research with YouGov confirms why it’s a risky strategy.
Every year we commission YouGov to survey over 2,000 adults in the UK to explore awareness of invasive plants, how much people know about them and what they would do if their property was affected.
It is the 11th annual EO Day on 23rd June 2023, bringing together thousands of employee owners, businesses, and supporters from across the UK to celebrate the benefits and impact of employee ownership.
