    Lunchtime Learning Logo

    FVA lunchtime learning sessions are aimed at raising the skills and capacities of local service providers interested in improving or enhancing their provision in Fife.

    Electricity bills are high these days! And Cosy Kingdom can help small third sector organisations to manage their bills with the added benefit of making their energy use more climate friendly.  

    At this session, Michael Hildrew from Cosy Kingdom will help third sector organisations, small businesses and community groups to understand:

    • A basic "building" energy efficiency health-check
    • Some energy efficiency hints and tips for organisations and their staff/volunteers
    • How small organisations be climate confident and take control of their energy and resources
    • Where to get support on decarbonisation of heating systems, including useful information on funding
    • Making referrals for audits, funding options and additional support
    • Where to get support if you want to make sustainable changes
    • Creating a "Green Team" in your organisation to help grow the change and make the transition easy

    Before you submit this

    Access, dietary and other requirements. Please use the boxes above to tell us about any access, communication, dietary or other requirement, for yourself or anybody you are booking for. We will do our best to meet what you tell us, and we will get in touch if we think we might struggle to, or if we need to know a bit more.

    Refreshments. There is normally tea, coffee, water and biscuits. Lunch and anything else is only provided where the event description above says so.

    Your place is not confirmed yet. When you submit this form we will e-mail you an acknowledgement of what you have told us. That is not a confirmation. We will look at the request and send a separate e-mail confirming or declining it, as soon as we can.

    Terms and conditions. You can read them in full before you book.

    Privacy. Submitting this form gives us your name, contact details and anything you have told us about your requirements. We use it only to organise, deliver and evaluate this event, and we share it only with the people running it. We will not add you to a mailing list or use it for anything else. You can ask us to change or delete it at any time. Our privacy notice explains your rights in full.

What happens next

We will e-mail you as soon as you submit this form, confirming what you have told us. That is not a confirmed place. A second e-mail follows once a person here has checked and confirmed it — your place is confirmed when you receive that one.

Who can book

Most people at our events are staff, volunteers or committee members of community groups, social enterprises and voluntary organisations. We take bookings from public sector colleagues for almost everything, and from private sector businesses for some events.

If you are not part of an organisation, put Private Individual in the organisation box and we will get in touch before confirming.

Booking for other people

Give each person their own e-mail address if you can. Everything about the event goes to the person attending, and the link to change or cancel a place is personal to them.

Anything you tell us in the requirements boxes – access, dietary or other needs – goes only to the people who need it to make the day work for you, and is not kept after the event has been evaluated.
