Renewable Energy Specialists
The UK’s National Agency ECOTEC has awarded Embrace with one of the European Commission’s flagship Transfer of Innovation projects. The project has been developed over the years to address the need for qualified and well-trained people working in the renewable energy sector. The project will be a platform to share the regional/ national differences in vocational education and training (VET) within the renewable energy sector. This 2-year project started in October 2009 and we will work with UK crafts colleges, industry partners and organisations already delivering training in renewable energy across Europe.

Embrace Woodlands
This one year Heritage Lottery funded, Embrace Cooperation Ltd project that will start in October 2009 and run in partnership with environmental conservation charity Trust for Urban Ecology (TRUE).
The project will focus on traditional woodland crafts, environmental conservation, increase awareness of, and encourage participants to maintain and preserve the Dulwich Upper Wood (London) nature reserve site for future generations. These traditional woodland crafts have been developed over many years and the local native wildlife has also adapted slowly over time. As the wildlife benefits from these practical crafts they have become part of the site management.
