Switch, Save, and Raise funds for Ealing Transition!

good energyRenewable, carbon-free energy at under Big 6 prices from Good Energy via Ealing Transition Initiative….. the real energy alternative.

With the recently announced price increases for energy many of us will be concerned about how we can meet the costs and what future increases are likely.

Ealing Transition has been working towards building a more sustainable local community for the past 5 years. One of our areas of concern and action is energy. We been working on local projects to cut energy costs and make ourselves less reliant on imported and costly fossil fuels.

We are delighted to inform you that we have built a partnership with Good Energy who are one of the few 100% renewable electricity providers in the UK. They buy their electricity from small scale UK generators using wind, small hydro and solar. As such, their electricity is carbon-free and locally sourced. They are also currently a little cheaper than the ‘Big 6’ supplier companies, and because they do not rely on gas & coal, their costs are not going to rise like the Big 6.

We invite you to explore switching to Good Energy as a genuine cheaper, clean energy alternative.

If you contact them via this shortcut http://www.goodenergy.co.uk/affiliates/ealing-transition or phone them for a quote on 0845 456 1640 quoting ref GE 2174, Ealing Transition will get a donation of £25 from Good Energy should you go on to switch to them.

You can cut the cost of your energy, cut your carbon footprint and support a local community group in one go! Howzat?

Re-Skilling Day Workshop Facilitators

We had over 150 people through the doors on Re-Skilling Day 2013, who took away new skills and fresh inspiration! Thanks for coming!

We’d also like to thank everyone who made the day possible: our tireless organisers, the front desk helpers, the people who made and served the food, the church for use of its facilities, and those who set-up before, and swept-up afterwards!

Of course the day would have been nothing without our wonderful Workshop Facilitators, who gave up their time and offered their skills for free: cheers!

We’ve now got a little page dedicated to them, so if there was a workshop you attended, and would like to know more, or if there’s one you missed out on, that’s the place to head to find out how you can contact them.

And thanks again, everyone!
