Charities, community groups and faith organisations are often the first place people turn when they are struggling — whether that’s with rising energy bills, cold homes or wider cost-of-living pressures.

These organisations play a vital role in supporting their communities, but may not always have access to the specialist energy knowledge, funding opportunities or technical expertise needed to address the root causes of fuel poverty.

YES Energy Solutions works in partnership with community organisations across the UK to provide practical energy advice, connect households with funding and deliver energy efficiency improvements that make a lasting difference.

By working together, we help organisations extend their support for residents while delivering meaningful improvements in homes and community spaces.

Working in partnership with communities

Community organisations often have trusted relationships with residents who may be difficult for traditional services to reach.

YES Energy Solutions works alongside charities, community groups and local organisations to ensure households can access practical energy saving support when they need it most.

Our teams complement the work of community partners by providing specialist advice, outreach services and connections to funding and retrofit programmes. This approach helps organisations strengthen the support they already provide while ensuring residents receive coordinated assistance.

Through these partnerships, households can receive trusted guidance, practical improvements and long-term solutions that help them manage energy costs and live in warmer homes.

Our services can also support wider referral networks, including community advice services, social prescribing programmes and local support organisations.

How we support community partners

Community energy advice

Our qualified Level 3 accredited advisers provide practical guidance to help households understand their energy use, reduce bills and access the support available to them.

Reaching hard-to-engage households

Through our Mobile Advice Centres (MACs) and community outreach teams, we deliver face-to-face advice in local settings, helping reach residents who may not engage with traditional services.

Funding support for community buildings

We help community organisations identify funding opportunities to improve the energy efficiency of their buildings — from insulation and heating upgrades to solar PV and battery storage.

Support for vulnerable households

Our advisers work with residents facing financial hardship, health challenges or fuel poverty, providing tailored support that reflects their individual circumstances.

Retrofit and energy efficiency improvements

Through our retrofit and installation programmes, eligible households can access improvements that make homes warmer, more efficient and affordable to heat.

Partnership delivery in practice

YES Energy Solutions works with community organisations and local support networks to reach households experiencing fuel poverty.

Through community outreach initiatives and partnerships with local groups, our advisers deliver trusted guidance and connect households with financial support, energy advice and home improvements.

These partnerships help ensure support reaches people who may otherwise struggle to access help, particularly vulnerable households and those experiencing financial hardship.

Delivering impact for communities

Working with community partners allows energy support to reach households that might otherwise go unnoticed.

Through these partnerships, residents can receive:

  • Practical advice to help manage energy costs
  • Support accessing grants, funding and financial assistance
  • Energy efficiency measures that improve comfort and reduce bills
  • Greater confidence in managing energy use at home

By combining community partnerships with energy advice, retrofit expertise and installation delivery, YES Energy Solutions helps ensure households receive the support they need to live in warmer, healthier homes.
