Community Benefits

Strategic outcomes

  1. Warmer, more energy efficient homes, helping to reduce fuel poverty across Coventry
  2. Targeted support and energy advice to the most vulnerable and harder to reach communities
  3. Commitment to an annual Community Benefit Fund
  4. Ensuring all voices in the city are heard and no one is left behind.

We will reach out to the most vulnerable and hard-to-reach communities, providing them with energy advice and support.  Beyond the commercial and environmental benefits, we will use the partnership to generate social benefits that support the communities of Coventry

Communities will benefit through planning, funding and collaborative action – volunteering and support will be provided

Plan and Fund

  • Establishing Community Benefit Plan - mutually beneficial collaboration with local community groups in Coventry to support initiatives that align with our values and objectives will be identified, supported and promoted
  • Developing annual Community Benefit Fund which will benefit the environment and community giving priority to organisations that focus on energy, education, environment, jobs, health, and socio-economic development

Volunteering and Support

  • Implementing a structured volunteering programme, encouraging individuals from across the city to participate actively in community service and ecological projects
  • Promoting energy efficiency support to residents and setting out the range of options available to residents on energy efficiency and potential available funding for them.
