Earn Money for Your Community with Local United
Local United LogoLocal United has teamed up with a number of leading ethical energy suppliers (Good Energy, Cooperative Energy, Green Energy UK and Ecotricity) to offer community groups the chance to benefit financially from their members switching to one of these suppliers. This scheme allows every community to benefit from the link to these energy suppliers and to generate somewhere around £500 to £2,000 each year for their own aims without each community needing to negotiate an individual deal for themselves. We will work with each community group to provide marketing material and operational support to help them recruit their members to the scheme.
