The REACH Open Homes day: here's how to book
SORRY - TICKET SALES NOW CLOSED
WE WILL RUN ANOTHER OPEN HOMES EVENT LATER IN THE YEAR
January 14 is the date of our first REACH Open Homes day, when RA members can visit Suburb homes with a range of energy-saving measures.
You can hear about costs, suppliers, any problems… get the full picture from an HGS resident who has implemented the measures in their own property.
We expect each tour to last an hour. We’ve arranged two sessions at each home, so you could visit more than one home. However, note that places are strictly limited. And we’re asking for a £10 donation to Food Bank Aid for each visit. Full address details are provided after booking.
