This event is for anyone who owns or rents a home!
We can all save energy and money by altering the way we run and manage our heating systems - even with slight changes. In this session you will pick up some extremely useful tips on how to do this.

Austin Jacobs is Operations Director at Reading Hydro.
Tony Cowling works on a number of local renewable energy projects and leads the successful DraughtBusters initiative. He is author of Draughtproofing and Insulation: A Practical Guide, which states:
"Many households will be paying 10–15% more than they should on their heating bill because of draughts, and when a lack of insulation is also an issue, that figure goes up. However, many draughts are easily fixed, and for a little outlay a considerable sum can be saved. Insulation can often be installed by the homeowner and lead to a substantial reduction in heating bills."
