Considering Labour’s mission to have clean energy by 2030 and to generate growth, tackle the cost-of-living crisis and make Britain energy independent once again we feel it’s important to have a conversation on community owned energy and the benefits of this.

In this webinar we will hear from Sean Irving from Cooperation Hull to share how they set up their Hull energy coop and the impact this has had. We will also have Clare Farrell (Co-Founder of Extinction Rebellion) who will talk about why community owned energy is important as we transition away from fossil fuels.

And Nick Gardham will explore the potential economic benefits for local communities.

This network is made up of community practitioners from across the UK working in a range of careers in the community.

It provides expert led webinars twice a month on subjects such as reaching out and engaging with the community, working across different ethnicities and faith, managing conflict, creating a strategy to bring about change in communities, managing stress and avoiding burnout to name only a few. All webinars are tailored around your wants and needs.

We have a catalogue of over 45 past webinars that you can watch in your own time, and we are on hand for support and guidance.

We also hold monthly reflective sessions facilitated by our Lead Trainer, where you can share successes and challenges with your peers and problem solve together. These sessions are pivotal to your mental wellbeing and connecting with your peers to create an ongoing support network.
