The Rural Energy Club is a new initiative from CCB designed to support rural households in understanding, managing, and reducing their energy use. It’s currently a welcoming space where you can access simple, independent information about:

• How to cut energy use and lower bills

• Low carbon heating systems and home renewable energy options

• Why energy choices matter for the environment and how you can help the UK move towards net zero

• Trusted links to other organisations offering practical advice and resources

We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to take control of their energy future – and that rural communities deserve tailored support to do just that.

Why is CCB involved?

At CCB, our vision is for all communities in Berkshire to be strong, resilient, and sustainable. We work to reduce rural disadvantage, improve wellbeing, and increase digital and social inclusion. Helping households to use energy more efficiently and explore low carbon alternatives is a vital part of that mission.

What’s our ambition?

We’re working on a project that will offer trusted, independent support to rural households who want to reduce energy use, manage it more efficiently, and – where possible – generate and store their own clean energy. We’re not there yet, but we’re working on it!

Want to be part of it?
