Recently, we were pleased to welcome Energy Action Scotland to our HQ to deliver the City & Guilds Energy Awareness training to some of our staff. This marks the first time the training has been delivered in person since the Covid-19 lockdown, offering a valuable opportunity for hands-on learning and collaboration.

Over three days, some of our staff including six Modern Apprentices, our Young Person Officer, and a member of our Social Wellbeing team took part in the sessions. The course covered a wide range of topics, from efficient heating and preventing heat loss, to managing household energy use, tackling fuel poverty, and understanding energy costs and budgeting. It also explored practical, low- and no-cost ways to save energy, alongside guidance on accessing financial support and grants.

By equipping our staff with this knowledge, we’re strengthening our ability to support individuals and communities to stay warm, manage energy costs, and improve their overall wellbeing.
