It’s tough times for Sports Clubs these days and many are looking at ways to reduce their running costs. We spoke to Clydesdale Cricket Club in Glasgow and discussed how much it costs to run their clubhouse. With costs spiralling and bar profits down, they were looking to reduce costs. Our advice and funding support has helped the both reduce costs and have a significantly positive impact on their CO2 emissions. We have won financial support from E.ON Energy Action Fund and have helped the club replace every light bulb with a low energy LED bulb, introduce PIR switches to reduce wasted lighting and installed insulation in the loft and other areas. The improvements have been complemented by our ideas to introduce can recycling, bicycle facilities and public transport information to help make the club Scotland’s first Green cricket club.
