In Spring 2023, Donore Credit Union established the Donore Area Sustainable Community (DASC) which is a registered Sustainable Energy Community (SEC).
DASC is a Community Group dedicated to playing its part in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving the quality of the natural environment in our local area. The Sustainable Energy Communities (SEC) is a funding and support programme, which helps communities to work together to become energy-smart and more sustainable. In doing so, Sustainable Energy Communities aim to use less energy by improving efficiency withing the community.
A SEC can include a range of different energy users in the community such as individual households, sports clubs, community centres, local businesses, religious establishments and more.
What we aim to do
- Add more greenery to the area and make our community even more pleasant.
- Help and encourage individual homes, local businesses, community organisations and similar establishments to make their buildings more energy efficient.
- Keeping the area clean.
- Encouraging local schools to participate in sustainable initiatives including measuring air pollution, organising cycle buses and planting wildflowers.
