The Sustainable Homes Action Group, with support from the Renewable Energy Action Group, is planning a morning of retrofitting at the Woodend Neighbourhood House. We’ll be working on draughtproofing windows and doors and applying secondary glazing (a layer of Perspex inside the window glass as a DIY alternative to double glazing). Let us know if you’d like to join in, by email to susthomes@mrsg.org.au, by about 19th June, so we can organise teams mindful of social distancing requirements.
The WNH Winter Energy Improvement Project is supported by the Federal Government “Stronger Communities” Programme.
