  • Is your community building unwelcomingly cold, draughty and hard to heat?
  • Are your heating bills eating into your reserves?
We are all aware that we could improve the energy efficiency of our community buildings and thus cut costs, make them more comfortable, and be kinder to the environment. But exactly what can be done to improve your building’s energy efficiency? How do you prioritize the options so as to choose the measures most realistic and cost effective for your situation? And how do you go about installing your chosen options?
 
This practical, implementation-focused workshop is aimed at managers, trustees and members of management committees which are keen to reduce their community building’s energy consumption and reduce fuel bills, and prepared to invest reserves or fundraise to undertake energy efficiency measures. The session will use Combs Village Hall as an on-site case study, where Mike Evanson and the management committee have reduced the Hall’s energy consumption by over 50% in the last 5 years.
 
 Cost: Voluntary, community and faith-based organizations without / with paid staff £10 / £30; Statutory & others £75
