Supporters

Support for the founder's mission of finding ways to deliver energy efficient homes has been received from representatives of over 100 organisations from Alba plc to WHICH?. Extracts from some of their comments are mentioned below in alphabetical order:  

Association for Conservation of Energy
I can give this concept unequivocal backing from this Association.” 

Association of Home Information Pack Providers
"AHIPP is supportive of any initiatives that will help to drive out the benefits of HIPs for consumers and that will result in greater energy efficiency in homes resulting in lower carbon emissions".

 Barratt Homes
“Any initiative which will enable existing homes to have their energy efficiency improved is always welcome as this will have the greatest effect on CO2 emissions”.

 BRE
I support all initiatives that encourage householders to respond to the recommendations of the EPC to improve the energy efficiency of their homes.

 Chartered Institute of Housing
 “The Chartered Institute of Housing welcomes the objectives of commercial initiatives like Home Matter who are looking to develop mainstream commercial products that will incentivise the retrofitting of energy efficiency measures to the exiting stock. Embedding change in how the housing market operates and providing opportunities for consumer preferences to be the catalyst for changes will be key to driving forward the sustainability agenda.”

 Department for Communities and Local Government
“We are always interested to hear about schemes to improve the energy efficiency of buildings and to improve the home buying and selling process and wish you success in your venture”.

 Energy Savings Trust
“I am very supportive of initiatives that ensure EPCs are more valuable and drive action on energy efficiency”

Hertsmere Council
“Hertsmere Council are in agreement with the objectives of improving the energy efficiency of existing homes, and your scheme would appear to offer incentives likely to result in action from home sellers”.

 National Energy Action
“NEA is happy to support initiatives like Homes Matter which encourages the take up of measures to reduce energy consumption. Many consumers deemed “able to pay” are in fact in or are near to being in fuel poverty. We hope that those who can, will take advantage of  low cost offers to insulate themselves against high energy prices into the future”

National Energy Foundation
It was a real pleasure to meet up with someone wanting to make a real difference and with a new way of approaching things”.

 National Home Improvement Council
“I welcome measures designed to promote the implementation of improvements in the energy efficiency of existing homes, and wish you well with your initiative. If it succeeds in delivering the anticipated benefits it will be a significant contribution to tackling climate change and improving the energy performance of Britain's housing stock.” 

 Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors
“I congratulate you on your innovative business model, and wish you success”

World Wildlife Fund / Existing Homes Alliance
"Innovation and simplicity don't always go hand in hand, but where these things gel, they can deliver powerful results. Homes Matter could be an agent for change in this way, with its straightforward, low impact approach to estate agency. It neatly ties basic energy efficiency upgrades with a financial boon to the householder over and above reduced energy bills. Additionally, it fleshes out and bolsters the usefulness of the Energy Performance Certificate, giving it more value in people's eyes. These are essential outcomes and indeed a business which should be lauded."
