The Wenhaston Energy Support Group was formed in March 2007.

As a ginger group – not experts ! – we want to encourage individual and community action through our role as a link between residents and environmental and grant- making bodies.

It was thought up originally by Parish Councillors who were keen to see the community look at its carbon footprint and have this included in the Parish Action Plan. The Group is now independent of, but supported by the Parish Council and is taking practical steps towards helping the community cut carbon emissions and research alternative and sustainable sources of energy to reduce dependence on oil.
