Keeping Houses Cool & Comfortable Workshop

Find that your home gets swelteringly hot in the heat? Cool down this summer with expert tips.

With summers like the one we are experiencing at the moment where the heat continues day after day, it can be very hard to keep our houses cool and comfortable.

Join us for a Green Meadows workshop looking at how our buildings react to the sun and explore some simple and inexpensive things to do in your home that can help you manage the heat.

We guarantee top tips on insulation and installing fans, as well as quick & thrifty changes!

Join us for a friendly discussion, get to know other people in the community, and learn some handy tips.

Wondering if this is right for you? If you have any questions or concerns, please get in touch with us by emailing admin@greenmeadows.uk or call 0115 718 2028, and we would be happy to advise.

Funding for the Green Meadows project, requires Meadows residents to be prioritised for events. If you live outside the Meadows, we encourage you to join us and take part, but please be aware that you may be added to a waitlist until the places are confirmed.
