The Great British Refurb Campaign wants to make it easier for everyone to live in a low-carbon home that is cheaper to run and more comfortable to live in. To that end, we are calling on: the UK Government to support people who want to do a low-carbon home refurb, but can’t afford the upfront costs, by offering incentives and innovative repayment schemes; to ensure local trades people are suitably skilled to undertake this work and for people to get interested, engaged and involved with the issue.
