A NORTH Yorkshire Scout group has called in a leading renewable energy company to help it transform its wooden hut.
The Easingwold Outdoor Centre, which is owned by 1st Easingwold (Forest of Galtres) Scout Group, currently has no electricity and its only heat source is a wood-burning stove.
But the group, which celebrated its centenary last year, is now planning to move the building to a new plot on the site and install a new renewable energy system, and Harrogate-based Clean Energy (Yorkshire) has worked with its project team to draw up a scheme.
Group Scout leader Dave Waring said: “We are grateful to Spencer and the Clean Energy (Yorkshire) team for devoting their time and expertise to helping us with the design stage.”
