Wecock Farm Passive Housing Site Visit

An exclusive opportunity to visit the Wecock Farm Passive Housing project pilot scheme for Portsmouth City Council.

Please note: this event is for over 18’s only.

Join the CIOB for this valuable site visit led by DM Habens Ltd. The Wecock Farm (Bunting Gardens) project is a pilot scheme for Portsmouth City Council, built to the Passivhaus standard — a rigorous international building benchmark that focuses on ultra-low energy consumption and exceptional indoor comfort. It uses a "fabric first" approach to drastically reduce heating and cooling needs, resulting in lower energy costs, a reduced carbon footprint, and improved air quality.

The tour will be led by the DM Habens Ltd team: Sean Morge MCIOB (Senior Contracts Manager), Rory Kennedy MCIOB (Contracts Manager) and Andrew Parsons (Site Manager).

This event will start with a 45 minute talk on the project followed by a tour of the construction site.

Attendees will need safety boots, hi-vis, and a hard hat to take part in this visit.
