We aim to empower individuals, groups, and organisations in the Ivel Valley by providing trusted advice on energy savings, implementing renewable energy projects, and coordinating local energy planning. Our goal is to make energy affordable, sustainable, and accessible for everyone. Partnering with Greensand Community Energy and Buzz Community Energy

We are a community energy group based in Central Bedfordshire. We have a team of very active Energy Champions giving free advice on everything from staying warm for less and avoiding damp through to domestic renewable technology.

What You'll Learn: 

Not only will you learn the ins and outs of our organisation, but you'll also get to learn about how to get a renewable energy project off the ground and you'll get to see first-hand how the financial benefits can support a community.

What We're Looking For: 

We’re looking for someone who is organised, reliable, and enjoys helping things run smoothly behind the scenes. Good communication skills, attention to detail, and a friendly, positive attitude are key.
