Join Calderdale’s Citizens’ Jury and shape the future!

9th August 2024 News

Are you passionate about making a difference in your community? We are inviting residents like you to participate in the Citizens’ JuryA diverse group brought together to consider important issues and recommend changes to local decision-makers. No prior experience or knowledge is needed; just your willingness to share your opinion and help shape the future.

How can we make Calderdale homes better?

Our initiative focuses on creating greener, more energy-efficient, and climate-resilient homes. As part of the borough’s Climate Action Plan, we aim to achieve a net-zero target by 2038. To reach this goal, at least 69,000 local properties need to be upgraded to an EPC rating of C or above. This process, known as “retrofit,” involves measures such as installing insulation, heat pumps, and solar panels.

Calderdale’s retrofit challenge:

We’re looking for jury members who reflect the diversity of Calderdale. As a homeowner, ideally living in a stone-built house or terrace, you can contribute to this important project. Attend in-person jury sessions on Saturdays and up to three online sessions this autumn.

Collaboration and funding:

Calderdale Council, Carbon Co-op, and Todmorden Learning Centre are working together on this project. It is funded by Innovate UK’s Net Zero Living Programme and runs from July 2023 to July 2025.
