Dear Rajiv
I have an air source heat pump and also solar PV panels, which were installed in 2012, and I would be willing to show them to people on a Green Homes Open Day if this is helpful. I am about 5 miles outside Maidenhead town centre, but on the National Cycle Route no4!
Regards
Des

    Dear friend,
    I am writing to let you know
    about an initiative being undertaken by Transition Town Maidenhead in partnership with Maidenhead
    Friends of the Earth.
     
    We applied and were successful to obtain a small grant
    award to promote Green Homes in and around Maidenhead. We now intend to run a Green
    Open Homes day event during spring this year.
    What is an open home?
    An open home is a domestic property where the resident
    allows other people in their local community to visit in order to see and learn
    about something in the house. Open homes are a great way to share ideas and
    information with your neighbours and others in your local community. Sometimes
    it helps to see things working in practice, and to talk to someone who’s
    experienced the process of getting something like insulation or renewable
    energy installed, to help people take action in their own home.
     
    The programme is supported by the Department of Energy and Climate Change, and delivered by the
    Centre for Sustainable Energy in partnership with Bristol Green Doors. They are
    offering advice and some support to participants. As the next stage in the process we
    would like to identify suitable homes in our area.
     
    Can you help?  Do you have green features either built in or
    retrofitted to your house? These might be for example super insulation,
    solar panels, a biomass boiler, a green roof, amazing compost bins, water harvesting,
    ground or air source heat pumps. Would you be prepared to show your home to
    interested visitors?
     
    We would also be looking at volunteer help to provide support before
    and on the event date, most likely a Saturday in April / May this year.Would you be willing to help your local
    community become more Sustainable?
     
    If so could you let me know and I will get back to you to
    discuss practicalities.
    Best wishes
    Rajiv
