Sustainable Construction Advisory Panel (SCAP) - Retrofit Reimagined

Truro and Penwith College is pleased to invite you to the next meeting of the Sustainable Construction Advisory Panel. This session is free to attend and open to all.

This session, Retrofit Reimagined, will bring together sector leaders to explore new thinking, practical solutions, and collaborative approaches to addressing the current challenges in retrofit delivery across Cornwall.

We are delighted to welcome Phil Ireland, Director of Irebuild, as our headline speaker. Featured on Channel 4’s Grand Designs, Irebuild is a people-first SME known for its innovative eco-building practices, use of low-impact and reclaimed materials, and strong commitment to creating education and employment opportunities within the community.

We will also hear from Jonathan Atkinson, Co-founder and Retrofit Lead at Carbon Co-op and Business Director at People Powered Retrofit. Jonathan will share insights from his extensive work developing community-led, scalable retrofit and low-carbon initiatives.

In partnership with Community Energy Plus, the event will also contribute to the early feasibility work exploring the development of a Cornwall Retrofit (Home Upgrade) Hub. Your input will help shape a vital initiative for future skills development, training provision, and emissions reduction across the region.

We hope you will join us for this important and collaborative session.

Lunch and refreshments will be provided.
