The South East Retrofit Summit will take place online on three consecutive mornings starting Tuesday 18, through Thursday 20 October.
Over the three mornings, you'll see examples of completed retrofit projects, hear about ongoing work in the social housing sector and learn more about the plans to meet the challenges faced in the retrofit sector. You'll also have an opportunity to learn about innovative ways to pay for retrofitting.

At these sessions, expect to:
- Hear from some of the UK's leading retrofit experts and practitioners
- Get the latest on retrofit best practices, research and case studies, local policy and future projects
- Network with attendees and local stakeholders
- Join live discussions and Q&As with speakers
- There are substantial commercial opportunities around retrofit in the south and many socio-economic 'co-benefits' for the region's residents.
Members across the South are encouraged to join this online resource, you can register for your free place now.
