Diane Bannerman explains what a day in the life of a Community Liaison Officer with Home Energy Scotland is like.
Name: Diane Bannerman
Job title: community liaison officer
Company: Home Energy Scotland
My morning:
My working day usually starts at 9am. Normally I head to the office to check my e-mails and get a cup of tea, but my first port of call may be a home visit, fuel poverty workshop or networking event anywhere in the north-east of Scotland.
Fuel poverty is an issue that affects people right across the north east and my work reflects that. I could find myself working in any part of the region and my role is very varied.
The cold climate here means that those with poorly insulted homes can find themselves with very high fuel bills.
My week is planned out in advance but it can change depending on where I’m visiting.
