It is too late to book a place for this particular session, sorry about that.Climate action is an ever more important topic in our world.

By the end of the event, you'll understand:
- Why it's worth taking action in the first place
- What works well for organisations of different sizes
- How you as a trustee can help start conversations in your organisation

She's passionate about sharing her knowledge with the voluntary sector where she's able to make a difference and support those who help create a better society for us all.
- Emily Berr, Partnership Manager from Utility Aid - Emily has a passion for supporting the voluntary sector to save time and money on their energy provision. She believes that collaboration is key to achieving a sustainable future.

- Ruaire Glackin, Head of Net Zero and Energy Management at Utility Aid - At Utility Aid, Ruaire has consulted housing associations, nursing homes, schools, religious groups, and many different types of community organisations on the journey to net zero.
