Our Finance for Retrofitting event was a complete sell-out! We explored interventions that communities had proposed in prior events. These included EPC improvements, new structures of loans and providing technical advice and straight-talking data to homeowners.

We piloted the South Yorkshire Retrofit Skills Task Force thanks to funding from the government’s Department of Energy and Net Zero and held an event with our networker of contractors, trainers, housing associations and community peers.

Thank you to Acan! for enabling us to promote the benefits of using natural materials in retrofitting.
