Testimonials
“The sessions were really informative with lots of learns to work on and ideas to implement. It was good to get to spend time with other charities in that open setting too. It’s also a chance to meet representatives from businesses that you probably wouldn’t get to engage with otherwise This network was real value for money, particularly the last session which gave so much insight and practical tips to approach and engage with charities. It was good to learn more about how Business in the Community engage with charities and the framework you provide to businesses.” Therese Wilson, Events & Area Fundraising Manager (NI), Mencap
“Genuine thanks for the input and challenge when we met at our Charity Learning Network. Having your initial perspective and input regarding our relationship with the corporate world is of real value as we move into a new chapter.” Dave Morton APM MBA, Operations Manager, Quaker Service
“I’d recommend Business in the Community’s Learning Network- it was great learning and brilliant networking. The key take-aways for me were: making personal connections, highlighting what we as a charity can offer companies and how to keep the relationships going once a partnership has ended”. Louise Richardson, Fundraising Officer, Cancer Focus

National Energy Action (NEA) NIOnline / VirtualSeminarTraining/AdviceWorkshopThe UK government set out a target, enshrined in the Climate Change Act (2008), to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions across the whole of the UK by 2050. Decarbonising homes is central to achieving that target and there is an urgent need to address the carbon emissions produced in heating and powering domestic properties. While the electricity powering lighting and appliances is decarbonising fast, the majority of homes still rely on burning fossil fuels for heating, hot water and cooking. This course will provide an introduction to the role domestic scale renewable technologies can play in reducing carbon emissions. It will provide a non-technical explanation of how the technologies work, the factors to consider when installing these technologies, costings, potential carbon savings and their advantages and drawbacks.- - -
