"It was really helpful to learn about People Powered Retrofit’s journey, how they have developed their services and some of the challenges along the way. We really appreciated how open they were to co-design the sessions rather than just bringing a prescribed model, and how they brought in different team members with a huge range of expertise and experience on different topics."

"North East Scotland Retrofit Hub is in the early stages of development, and we were keen to learn from People Powered Retrofit’s experience. Our directors gained valuable insights into the challenges of establishing a new organisation, including the need for persistence, patience, social marketing, and building capacity with available funding."
