Islington Council invites you to an engaging evening of conversation and insight into the world retrofitting, a key solution for making homes warmer in winter, cooler in summer, greener, and more cost-effective.
Whether you're a homeowner, renter, or simply curious about energy efficiency, this panel discussion will introduce you to the basics of retrofitting, including practical steps you can take to improve your home’s energy performance this winter.
What to expect from the talk:
- Hear from retrofit experts, local architects, and an Islington resident who has successfully retrofitted their own property.
- Learn about simple and affordable changes you can make to reduce heat loss and energy consumption.
- Gain insight into the benefits of retrofitting, from lower bills to improved comfort and reduced carbon emissions.
- Understand how retrofitting fits into Islington’s sustainability goals and how you can be part of the change.
While the event will briefly touch on planning considerations, please note that detailed advice will not be covered. For more in-depth planning support, we encourage you to contact our Duty Planning service here. Enquiries about Retrofit micro-generation, energy efficiency and/or energy reduction measures to your home or building are free.
