Helping Residents  to Keep Down Costs when Fuel Prices are Rising

MAGS carried out approximately 50 energy audits for households in the area and gave people free independent advice on how to save money through insulation and switching to renewable energy sources.

This service is still available and an appointment can be booked through Katheryn Hope 01647 440855.We have also produced a booklet describing the renewable energy sources that are feasible for people living in Moretonhampstead. The booklet gives an idea of costs of installation, the financial benefits and local suppliers.If you would like a copy there are some in the entrance to the library, at the Parish Council Office and from the number above.

Workshop: Revamp Restyle Refashion

We transformed discarded garments into glorious and glamourous apparel; created bags from swatches of material; and re styled favourite items of clothes to give them a more contemporary look with help from Angharad Barlow a talented local costume designer who trained at the London College of Fashion.Our workshop came partly as a response to the disturbing short film White Gold from the Environmental Justice Foundation about cotton production in Uzbekistan, the world’s third largest cotton producer.
