Young Energy Champions Are Live!

Posted 15th January 2024

The Young Energy Champions are now live across YouTube, TikTok and Spotify! They have come up with several different ways to make you aware of saving energy and how important it is to be aware. The Young Energy Champions has been an 18 month project within NHP. The project has aimed to educate young people & staff in House Projects around energy awareness and for this knowledge to be continually shared with future cohorts and future generations of care experienced young people. The project has been co-produced with four core young energy champions leading on its implementation over these 18 months. Dozens of people have been trained, numerous energy workshops delivered and a substantial amount of energy vouchers distributed.

One Young Energy Champion stated that:

 

Being a part of the Young Energy Champions has taught me everything there is to need to know about saving energy, I was so grateful for the opportunity as I can now teach others what I have learnt.
