Home Energy in the Highlands
Community Consultation
Introduction
Energy costs continue to rise, putting a strain on household budgets, particularly in the Highlands. Alongside this financial burden, the pressing need to address climate change has prompted a growing concern about the environmental impact of using fossil fuels to heat our homes. Recognising the need for change, several community organisations in the Highlands have joined forces to enhance the guidance and support available to local residents. Our aim is to empower individuals with the knowledge and resources to make informed decisions regarding energy efficiency measures such as insulation and low-carbon heating. We invite you to participate in our community consultation to gather valuable information on your energy usage and explore ways to reduce consumption.
Why Your Input Matters
We understand that navigating the world of energy efficiency can be overwhelming. Many people are unsure where to begin or how to identify the most cost-effective solutions. By sharing your experiences and perspectives, you can help shape the future of energy-saving initiatives in our community. Your input will enable us to develop targeted strategies that address the unique challenges faced by Highland residents. Together, we can pave the way towards a more sustainable and affordable future.
The Community Organisations Involved
This collaborative effort brings together the expertise and passion of several community organisations dedicated to improving energy efficiency in the Highlands. These organisations include:
1. Coigach Community Development Company
2. Contin, Jamestown, and Tarvie Projects
3. Gairloch and Loch Ewe Action Forum
4. The Garve & District Development Company
The Survey: Your Voice Matters
We invite you to take part in a brief survey that will only require 5 to 6 minutes of your time. Rest assured, all data collected will remain anonymous, ensuring your privacy. By participating, you will contribute to our shared goal of improving energy efficiency services in the Highlands. Your insights will play a vital role in shaping a future that is more environmentally conscious and economically sustainable.
