Introducing Bristol City Leap! ✨ A transformational partnership that will enable £1 billion of investment to accelerate green energy investment in Bristol and help towards decarbonising the whole city. 📍 #Bristol #Energy #Sustainability #Decarbonisation

We had the pleasure of hosting Darren Jones MP recently to showcase our retrofit efforts in social housing 🏠   Our projects are making homes in Bristol not only more energy efficient but also healthier and safer for residents. We're proud to be contributing to Bristol's decarbonisation journey and making a real difference in the city 📍   #Bristol #Decarbonisation #Retrofit #EnergyEfficiency

I had a great afternoon showing the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero team around our sites in Bristol. Thank you for taking the time to come visit the schemes that you've funded and we've delivered. It was an interesting afternoon of great chats and insights. It's so useful for us to understand how some of these policy decisions are made as much as it is for them to see the challenges we face in delivering them. Thank you to all who helped organise and support the day. Sam Robinson Helen Reed Jamie Abbott Dave Cox Katherine Piper MSc Ben Roberts Martin Rowse

Yesterday, we had the pleasure of hosting a team from Department for Energy Security and Net Zero during their visit to Bristol! It was a fantastic opportunity to showcase some homes that have benefited from free retrofit work through our Bright Green Homes scheme, along with several social housing properties where we have implemented energy-saving measures 🏘️ They also toured Broughton House Energy Centre, which contains a biomass boiler supplying heating and hot water to the Redcliffe heat network. This building is one of the Bristol City Council housing blocks linked to the Bristol heat network 👷 We truly enjoyed hosting the team and are excited to continue our collaboration to support Bristol's decarbonisation efforts 🩵 #Bristol #Energy #Sustainability #Decarbonisation

🌳 A strong start to the week at Green Schools Project! 🌳 We welcomed our new team member, Loz Hennessy, who has joined us in Bristol as Community Climate Action Manager. Over the next few months, Loz will be working with our Bristol Zero Carbon Schools to help them take their pupil-powered climate action beyond the school gates into the community. A big welcome to Loz and huge thanks to Bristol City Leap for funding this new role. Loz got stuck in straight away, attending an event organised by the Cabot Institute for the Environment and School of Education, University of Bristol on Green Skills and Climate Education. The event brought together academics and staff from across the university who heard from Tom Hague about Green Schools Project's work and to discuss opportunities to collaborate on climate education and development of green skills for the future. Lots of energy, ideas and opportunity that we are excited to make happen! Particular thanks to Ed Atkins and Vicky Jones for organising the event and to everyone who came along. 👇For those interested in reading more about our programme and impact - see link in comments for our most recent Impact Report 👇 University of Bristol Business School Dr Nicola Warren-Lee Paul Howard-Jones Josie Maskell Terra Sprague Megha Phadkay Andy Wakefield
