Utilita is a pay as you go energy provider that works with social landlords across the UK.  As part of its work with the City of Edinburgh Council, Utilita is providing funding to help support community-based projects.

One of the first projects included planting trees in a green space at Firrhill Crescent, in South West Edinburgh.  Three beautiful birch trees and three beautiful cherry trees were bought and planted by the Council to benefit future generations to come.

Plans are also underway to provide new computers to sheltered housing residents and community event equipment to a community group in North East Edinburgh.  What about your area?  Do you have ideas for a community project that would benefit tenants? Email tenant.panel@edinburgh.gov.uk
