CHERIS (Community Housing Energy Retrofit Information Service) is dedicated to helping homeowners, landlords, and communities in West Cork improve energy efficiency, reduce carbon footprints, and save money through sustainable energy solutions. CHERIS was a collaborative project between Ludgate, RetroKit and The Wheel, funded by the Community Climate Action Program.
Overview of Our Mission
At CHERIS, we believe in empowering communities with the knowledge and resources they need to make informed decisions about energy retrofitting. Our goal is to:
Provide Clear Information: Understand the different grants, funding options, and retrofitting solutions available.
Connect with Experts: Find registered contractors, BER assessors, and One-Stop Shops for comprehensive energy upgrades.
Share Real Stories: Learn from case studies of homes like yours that have successfully undergone energy retrofits.
Support Community Initiatives: Discover how to start an energy clinic in your community or join the Sustainable Energy Community (SEC) program.
