Decarbonising church buildings is challenging due to their age, lack of insulation, and increasing energy needs for parishioners. To achieve carbon neutrality, alterations to heating/lighting and policies promoting sustainable living are necessary.
Please be aware that not all church buildings may be suitable for these projects. To explore your options further, please reach out to our Diocesan Advisory Committee for guidance on what can be implemented in your church. Alternatively, you can reach out to our Church Building Advisor to arrange a visit and discuss your options.
