This coming weekend sees the start of Retrofit Action Week, West Midlands, bringing together businesses, councils, and community groups for a week of engagement focused on domestic property retrofit led by Low Carbon Homes,
Events during the week include:
• Birmingham Retrofit Summit, hosted by Birmingham City Council: An online event featuring over 20 speakers across key themes like local government project delivery, skills development, and community engagement.
• Site visits, workshops, and drop-in sessions: Opportunities for professionals and residents to gain practical insights and access retrofit advice.
• Community-led action days: Events fostering local collaboration and raising awareness among residents.
“Retrofit Action Week is a crucial step towards normalizing the conversation around domestic property retrofit,” said Graham Lock, founder of Low Carbon Homes and organizer of the campaign.
“This collaborative effort presents a significant opportunity for the newly appointed Mayor, Richard Parker, to witness collaboration in action and to make good on his promise to prioritise retrofit to ensure healthier homes for all West Midlands residents.”
