Talks and workshops – Energy in church buildings

During 2009/10 I worked as a consultant on the Shrinking the Footprint campaign in the Diocese of Exeter. Most of these talks and workshops occurred during that time. I subsequently spent a year immersed in the religious life at Mucknell Abbey, living in the eco-monastery, and have also been able to draw on that experience.
