6 - 8 April 2010 - East Midlands

Background to the project  The refurbishment of existing buildings is a crucial yet often neglected subject within sustainable architecture with attention more focused on new buildings. Many older buildings waste large amounts of energy and provide poor internal conditions for their occupants.

The ‘Green Futures' project, an East Midlands Development Agency initiative, has been specifically developed to raise the local market's knowledge of sustainable development and increase implementation across the East Midlands region.

 

Aim of this consultation  To provide in-house, specific, focused and expert advice which is directly relevant to your needs and sustainable improvement plans.  This support is fully funded by emda and no contribution is required from the organisation for the visit.  This is a rare opportunity to gain free, tailored advice from BRE and EC Harris.

 

How?  Two sustainability experts from BRE and EC Harris that are leading the 'Green futures for existing buildings' programme will come to your organisation to discuss and advise you on your issues. They will:

  • provide in-house seminars on your preferred sustainable refurbishment topics
  • advise on where to start or how to progress with your plan
  • give guidance on any barriers that you are experiencing

 

When?  The visits will be conducted in the East Midlands region from Tuesday 6 April to Thursday 8 April.
