Retrofit guides for residents

Introduction

Host Claire Brown explores the importance of retrofit guides for residents through a case study from Stoke Climsland Parish Council in the South West of England.

Claire is joined by Richard Davies, Vice Chair of Stoke Climsland Parish Council and Chair of its Carbon Zero Committee, who discusses the council’s work to support whole-house retrofit across the parish. The conversation introduces the local approach to encouraging sustainable home improvements and highlights how community-led initiatives can help residents understand and engage with retrofit projects.

This episode provides an introduction to the role of parish councils in driving retrofit ambitions and the value of clear, accessible guidance for residents embarking on their own retrofit journey.
