Networks Roadshows

 
 
 
 
 

The Carbon Trust Networks Roadshows are a series of free UK-wide events for representative bodies who want to launch a carbon reduction project. The roadshows were held 24 - 28 September, 2007.

At each event, we were joined by a local organisation that has previously secured funding. We heard about their achievements and what the project has meant for their members. They also spoke about how they approached their application and benefited from the funding.

This year, we were joined by the following organisations:
