**The National Energy Foundation**

The National Energy Foundation is an independent charity based in Milton Keynes, which has been at the forefront of improving the use of energy in buildings since 1988. We aim to give people, organisations and government the knowledge, support and inspiration they need to understand, manage and reduce the use of energy in buildings.

You will provide advice and guidance to vulnerable households (such as the elderly, young families or those with a health condition) through a home visit, assessing their property for energy efficiency improvements (as well as assessing wellbeing measures) before creating a home visit report to refer into a range of case management services and onward social care and health support mechanisms.

Alongside this, you could be delivering awareness sessions or training to public health or voluntary sector organisations or the public; certainly, you’ll be representing NEF at public meetings and events.
