Householders in Buxton are set to get free help to reduce their energy bill and tackle their carbon footprint over the next year after eight volunteers from Transition Buxton completed a Home Energy Check course last weekend.
Caroline Harmon of Marches Energy Agency, a Midlands-based environmental charity, facilitated a course covering all the practicalities of visiting people's homes and helping householders work out how to reduce their energy usage. The day included a practice visit to a home in the area to put their new skills and knowledge to the test.
The group are now looking for homes to visit. If you think you'd benefit from a visit, keep an eye on their website. They'll be taking bookings soon.
Our new team of volunteer energy efficiency surveyors are training all day today, book your free home survey soon https://t.co/oLoPNsW7cs
