Congratulations to our friend and colleague, LCON trustee and CoHSAT co-chair Brenda Boardman on making the Woman’s Hour Power List 2020 for her innovative work on energy efficiency and fuel poverty.

‘You probably see Dr Brenda Boardman’s work every day, as she’s the woman who brought energy efficiency labelling to UK appliances. […] Brenda’s wider research is focused on energy use in British homes, and the existence and growth of fuel poverty. She speaks passionately about what governments need to do to ensure the benefits of energy-saving are accessible to all.’

Congratulations too to Oxfordshire conservation volunteer and former biology teacher Judy Webb, on the list for her dedication to local conservation over the past 25 years.

‘…she’s contributed well over 37,000 records of local species and habitats, and she can identify what pollen a bee makes by looking at its back legs!’
