In CARR we see retrofitting our housing stock as such an important opportunity to act on climate change. But the cost can be off-putting and prohibitive. We hope the more people take up these schemes, the more the schemes will be offered, expanded and developed.
Spread the word.
Let us know if you follow this up and how you get on. We would love to feed back to Redhill and Reigate about someone's personal experience of the scheme.
