South Lanarkshire Council has launched a new Energy and Retrofit Support service to help residents make their homes warmer, more energy efficient and more affordable to run, while supporting a just transition to net zero. Delivered in partnership with social enterprise Changeworks and funded by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund, this place-based pilot is designed to ensure no one is left behind.
As part of the pilot, Changeworks is working with Built Environment – Smarter Transformation (BE-ST) to build a strong supply chain network for the area to support the delivery of retrofit at scale.
This interactive workshop will bring together local installers, suppliers, training providers, community partners and public sector partners to explore the new service, understand demand in South Lanarkshire, and build the skills, knowledge and connections needed to deliver high-quality retrofit.
