If you’re interested in installing solar panels on your home, or adding battery storage, sign up now for Solar Together East Hampshire and get the best possible price.
You can join the group-buying scheme which offers solar panels with optional battery storage and EV charge points, as well as retrofit battery storage for residents who have already invested in solar panels and are looking to get more from the renewable energy they generate as well as increase their independence from the grid.
Sign up by 18 October to be included in the current scheme.

This September, take a stance against the impact of fast fashion by shopping second hand. Reclaim what style stands for. Dress for the world you want to see.
Explore slow fashion, sustainable fashion and ethical fashion, shop and donate second hand at one of the many charity shops in the district and help create a fairer world.

Almost all of us have unwanted, broken cables clogging up our drawers, or have considered binning that flimsy cable when it broke. That’s thousands of kilograms of precious copper going to waste, that could be recycled into anything from lifesaving hospital equipment to electric vehicles.
Cables contain copper which is one of the most precious materials on our planet and essential to our everyday lives. We use copper in our phones, transport, clean energy, lifesaving equipment and the green technology revolution.
So, ahead of International E-Waste Day why not grab all your old unwanted and broken wires and take them to the Household Waste Recycling Centre (HWRC) or a shop which sells electrical goods so they can be recycled?
