Eco Retrofit for Listed Buildings & Conservation Areas

February 22 @ 10:00 am 11:30 am

Historic houses in conservation area

With domestic households being responsible for 24% of UK carbon emissions we can all play a role in reducing our impact on the climate. But retrofitting in conservation areas can be complicated, which comes first conservation concerns, or tackling building related carbon emissions?

The Eco Retrofit for Listed Buildings & Conservation Areas webinar will look at how much local authorities can waver from statutory obligations and if there are ways to work around requirements and obligations so that householders in conservation areas are able to tackle their domestic emissions.

Come and hear from the experience of Bath Community and West in how to tackle retrofit in listed buildings, share your experiences and discussion points.
