West Dorset Greener Homes

14 Sep - 6 Oct 2019

We are opening sixteen homes around Bridport, Dorchester, Beaminster and Lyme Regis, some new builds, a few retrofits,and a lot of enthusiasm among the hosts (and visitors we hope). In some cases the low carbon lifestyles are as important as the buildings. Illustration by Graham Cox.

About

This event is organised by Transition Town Bridport.
Some of these homes require booking, others just turn up. Three years ago we made a film of several of the hosts, which can be viewed on the CLS website -"EcoHomes Compile".
Another film, with Ro, Julie, Jyoti and Sally (but without Emily and Sam) can be seen here.
Useful links on how to reduce the energy used in your home can be found on TTB website If you require wheelchair access, or have any questions to the organisers, please phone us on 07555 537360 , preferably in advance leaving a message. I will answer it when I get reception. Thanks. Sam
