Energising Communities

What If … ?
Residents on Camden council estates knew about all the ways to save money on their energy bills through the low-cost interventions we have recommended in our Energy Savers Club.

Energy Savers Club

We ran the third iteration of our Energy Savers Club (ESC) during autumn/winter 2024-25 (Sep 24 – Feb 25) from funding received by the Council’s Sustainability and Library teams. Our aim was to speak to as many members of the Camden community at pop-up events across various locations in the borough, namely:

Housing estates or TRA halls
High streets and
Libraries

At these events we wanted to educate the public and help them save money whilst decreasing their carbon footprint. Another key aim was sign up as many residents as we could to our ESC WhatsApp group by handing out one free energy saving item e.g. LED light bulb or draft excluder in exchange for a sign-up. The secondary aim was to hand out ‘energy-saving tips’ flyers to these residents. In total, we ran 10 events across these locations.

We signed up over 250 people to our ESC WhatsApp group by handing out one free energy saving item e.g. LED light bulb or draft excluder in exchange for a sign-up. We also handed out over 200 ‘energy-saving tips’ flyers to these residents. To date, we have 274 members on this WA group who receive weekly energy-saving tips in the form of posters and the occasional video made by a young local Camden resident.
