Energy saving project begins

In February Transition Exeter starts intensive local work in Newtown, Exwick and St David’s. The first event is A Street Day in Newtown on February 11th, when we’ll be leafleting and carrying out a survey to find out about energy in the home and residents concerns and priorities. We’ll also be advertising a practical Energy Efficiency Workshop to take place in Belmont Hut on February 25th, 10 – 4 pm, demonstrating how to draught proof doors and windows and looking at other ways to save energy at home.

Transition Exeter's New Website

Why a new website?

Over the last year there has been a lot of discussion about the posibilities for extending our web presence.

This new website is the first step.  It is built to tie in with the Transition Network's Web Project, and also with the international Transition Drupal 'website in a box' project.
