Target 2050 Communities
Since spring 2007, Stroud District Council has offered a programme of support to help community buildings become more energy efficient, under the community strand of Target 2050. The Community Halls Energy Efficiency and Renewables Scheme (
CHEERS) has now assisted 31 sites.
The project has helped these sites to:
- save money on energy bills for the long term
- reduce CO2 emissions
- create a better environment, both inside and out, for local people,
raising the appeal of the buildings - access funding opportunities to undertake suggested energy
efficiency project work
