About

Visit a home via Zoom and find out how the homeowner upgraded their house to make it warmer in winter and cooler in summer. There are four homes open for virtual tours during Great Big Green Week, 24 September to 1 October. 

Energy Saving Homes in Oxford is a project to encourage residents to improve the energy efficiency of their homes, through both large and small measures. Energy Saving Homes 2022 ran from 18 to 29 June 2022 and there was also an Energy Saving Fair at Oxford Town Hall on 26 June with a series of talks, films and advice booklets for householders, tenants and landlords. You can see the recordings of the talks on YouTube here. 

See our Bite-Size Films on YouTube: seven short and clear films with examples of what real homeowners have done to improve their homes.
