About

We're lucky to have lots of energy efficient and eco friendly homes in our two counties. This event is a fantastic opportunity to visit some of them and get inspired to make your own home more environmentally friendly and cheaper to heat. It will be a bit like an Open Gardens Day, but householders will be showing off their insulation and solar panels instead of their sunflowers and chrysanthemums!

Visitors will be able to see examples of improvements including solar panels, solid wall insulation, draught-proofing, air source heat pumps, grey water recycling systems and much more.
