This is the fifth meeting of the York Retrofit Network, which is part of a wider project supported by Innovate UK to create a Retrofit One-Stop-Shop for York. The meetings will occur roughly every two months. 

The network is an opportunity to: 

  • Make connections with people who want to or already work in the retrofit industry in York 
  • Ask questions to industry experts 
  • Share challenges and barriers 
  • Learn more about local opportunities 
  • Learn more about specific topics such as skills, accreditation and procurement processes 

You don’t have to currently work in retrofit to come to the sessions and they’re open to anyone who is an installer, supplier, manufacturer or contractor that services York. 

The fifth meeting will focus on skills, featuring: 

  • Talks from the York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority, York College and other local skills providers 
  • Free lunch 
  • Networking time 
  • Opportunity to sign up to the Supplier Marketplace for the One-Stop-Shop (until 3pm) 

Please contact lucy.allis@yorknorthyorks-ca.gov.uk if you have any questions, want more information, or can’t make this session but are interested in the network in the future.
