Presently we are aware of limited contact with individuals and families from ethnic communities in seeking advice on energy related matters. Your role would involve working with energy advisors from the Dundee Energy Efficiency Advice Project (DEEAP) to make ethnic communities aware of the services DEEAP provides. You would benefit from being associated with a well respected and dedicated team working to increase/achieve warm, dry, affordable homes. We would encourage you to undertake the City & Guilds qualification in "Energy Awareness" of which we would meet the cost. This would allow you to pass on your knowledge and understanding of energy issues and allow resolution of such matters. Importantly, you would enable individuals and families to reduce fuel spend, enhance insulation levels, maximise household income, register families for fuel discounted tariffs and assist with grant applications.

Make the world a little friendlier! Spend a weekend with an adult international student in your home, learning about their culture, showing them your local area and inviting them to experience your own home life. Volunteer hosts invite students to stay so the student can experience ‘real’ Britain, away from university and heavy tourism, and so the host can meet new people and learn about diverse cultures from around the world. Choose how often you host, how many people you invite (individuals, pairs or families) and if you would like to meet someone from a specific country. Students and hosts will be matched on interests and availability by a Regional Organiser (RO) who will also help you sign up. There are no specific expectations from a host visit, other than the student should be made to feel part of your family for the short time. Hosts can show their local area, visit friends, attend local events, or just spend time chatting. This is not a tourism opportunity for the student and hosts are not expected to act as ‘tour-guides’. So, if you’d like to enjoy an unusual and rewarding activity, meet new people and travel the world from your sofa, get in touch with HOST.
