Community projects to help households save energy

In November 2023, our climate and biodiversity team held an online event about how community groups and town and parish councils can encourage and facilitate energy efficiency upgrades to homes.

Attendees heard about inspiring projects from Thame Green Living and Greener Great Coxwell, both of which are working, in very different ways, to save energy from the homes in their areas. Information was also given about the support that the county and district councils can offer on this topic.
