SPEP WORKSHOP

Lots of residents and local people are making efforts to reduce energy and live more sustainably. There is a growing demand not only for businesses and organisations to also do their bit but also a demand for 'greener', more climate-friendly services and products.

Free of charge. Please email siobhan.mellon@scambs.gov.uk to book a place.
