## Description

There are four key headline objectives required from this service: 1\. To provide advice and assessment to 1000 households regarding their property, to include recommending specific behaviour change advice and suitable energy efficiency measures\. 2\. To subsequently install any recommended measures as in section 4\.1 below and report back on anticipated carbon and fuel bill savings\. 3\. To run and deliver a volunteer programme which will upskill 30 community volunteers as energy champions\. The aim of this is to enable communities to have energy related knowledge 'in house' and therefore become confident and empowered to deal with energy issues We would envisage that the energy champions receive training and are given knowledge regarding : the impacts of climate change, behavioural change relating to energy use in the home, fuel poverty issues and the impacts of a cold home\. 4\. To ensure the service has a lasting legacy and builds community ownership in a consistent manner\. We need to make sure that the project is not seen as a 'fit and forget' service - therefore methods of providing support and feedback to households for the length of the programme are key\.
