RE4D offers independent expert mentor support to communities across Devon. We are here to help you make sure you install the most appropriate system that meets your requirements and delivers a good return on investment.
Unfortunately a change in our funding means that we can no longer offer the mentor support for free, please contact us for more detail on the costs for this service. We are aware that communities often have very limited funds so we will be offering the support at a lower rate than to commercial businesses. We will publish more details on the pricing structure in due course, but in the mean time please contact us for more information.
