We were delighted to be one of the sponsors of the recent Stroud Retrofit Fair which was organised by Nailsworth Climate Action Network (CAN).
The Fair aimed to showcase a number of aspects of the retrofit of buildings to help develop awareness and demystify the topic. Retrofit refers to any measures that will reduce the carbon emissions of a building while maintaining good levels of comfort and reducing energy bills.
At the centre of the fair was a model house along with experts on fabric-related retrofit to share knowledge on heat loss assessments, insulation and avoiding damp issues.
Hundreds of people visited the Fair, and the retrofitting experts were inundated with enquiries.
Nailsworth CAN wrote to all of its sponsors of this event to thank them, and to let them read some of the positive feedback received. To read this click here.
