Foundation Community Partner of Aston Villa

Aston Villa Foundation

A Foundation Community Partner of Aston Villa

We are proud to be a Foundation Community Partner of Aston Villa. Improving the places we work in has been a goal of ours from the start, and the Aston Villa Foundation turns the reach of a Premier League club into practical work on the ground, across Birmingham and the West Midlands.

On the pitch or off it, the aim does not change. Reach for something better, and help the families and homes around you get there too. Our installers are on these streets every week, which is why this matters to us. Cutting a family's energy bills and helping a young person find their footing are the same kind of work, done from different directions.

Health and Wellbeing

Sessions that get people active and connected, aimed at the parts of the city where that is hardest to come by.

Young People

Education, employability and inclusion programmes that give young people a route into work and a reason to stay with it.

Rooted Locally

The work happens across Birmingham and the West Midlands, the same communities our installation teams work in every week.

Shows We Have Been Part Of

The best conversations about solar happen face to face. Here is where we have taken a stand and met homeowners and installers in person.

Grand Designs Live 2026 House Partner

Grand Designs Live

House Partner, 2026
  • ExCeL London, 1 to 4 May 2026
  • NEC Birmingham, 2 to 4 October 2026

Grand Designs Live brings together homeowners who are building, extending or upgrading, which makes it the right room for honest conversations about solar and storage. We came as a House Partner rather than a stand in the corner, and spent the days answering the questions people actually had about their own roofs.

InstallerSHOW, 23 to 25 June 2026, NEC Birmingham

InstallerSHOW

Exhibitor, 2026
  • NEC Birmingham, 23 to 25 June 2026

InstallerSHOW is where the trade meets: installers, manufacturers and the people setting the direction for heat, power and renewables in UK homes. We exhibited across all three days, talking to the engineers who fit this technology and the suppliers who build it.

Energy Efficiency Association CIC

Energy Efficiency Association

Exhibitor, September 2026
  • Institute of Directors, Pall Mall, London, 10 September 2026

The Energy Efficiency Association's policy conference gathers the people deciding how homes in this country get upgraded: councils, housing associations, installers and policymakers. We exhibited as part of the Emerald Green Energy group, with Emerald Solar and isnuug on the stand alongside, so the whole family was under one roof for the day. It is the room where the next wave of retrofit gets decided, and we wanted to be in it.

Come and Talk to Us
