SRA launch utilities service which could save thousands of pounds for sports clubs
Sports clubs and national governing bodies could save thousands of pounds by signing up to a utilities switching service launched by the Sport and Recreation Alliance (SRA).
The SRA has partnered with Utility Aid, an energy consultancy firm created to help not-for-profit organisations, to launch ‘Energy 4 Sport’ for Alliance members.
Utility Aid is offering free “energy health checks” for members and staff of sports clubs and governing bodies to ensure they are paying the right rates, and offering them guidance on effective alternatives.
It will set up its Ofgem-approved site for interested organisations, which will manage provider switches, reports on numbers and a free support line. If individuals use the site to effectively change energy provider, the club or firm the site belongs to will earn commission on the switch.
“If your organisation has 20,000 members, for example, and three per cent switch their electricity and gas via your site, your organisation will receive £3,240,” said a statement made by the SRA.
“For each family household the average saving is £160. In turn, this can represent more than the equivalent of an annual membership subscription of your sport or recreation activity and, therefore, potentially be used to encourage participation of your activity.”
