Over the last 15 months the National Retrofit Hub has been supporting community and citizen led groups working at the rock face of retrofit and repair in their communities. We have worked closely with these groups through a structured programme focused on peer learning and industry connections. The aim is to support the increase their impact and build stronger collaboration, while testing approaches that could be replicated to support fair and effective retrofit. Join us to hear about the incredible breadth and depth of innovation in neighbourhoods up and down the country.
