Perfect weather to talk about keeping your home warm.

🌱 Curious about making your home more sustainable?

Whether you’re thinking about solar, trying to cut energy bills, or just want a warmer home in winter (and cooler in summer), our Sustainable Living Series Webinars can help.

This year, we're partnering with other Gippsland councils and Renew to offer a free program of 12 webinars throughout the year, designed to help residents make informed choices about their homes.

We've already done four - covering off solar and home batteries, all-electric homes and electric vehicles - and this month we'll cover off on how to make your home (whether you rent it or own it) more comfortable through winter. ❄️

The webinars are led by independent experts and include time for questions, so you can get advice that suits your situation.
