Sarah Buchanan, Impact Manager (Retrofit), BE-ST

This week the Accelerate to Zero podcast features an interview with BE-ST’s very own Sarah Buchanan, Impact Manager in the Retrofit team. Not only does Sarah have an extensive knowledge of the retrofit space, but she also has taken on her own retrofit project of her home. She is an active member of Loco Home Retrofit, an organisation providing quality advice and whole house retrofit assessments, and an active community of support to share skills and knowledge, also featured in the last series of this podcast. Someone with Sarah’s perspective knows what needs to be done, has experienced the process of trying to get it done, but can also identify the gaps or problems in delivering retrofit. But Sarah frames all of this as opportunity. And she’s right. See the links of useful resources below and enjoy listening.
