Green Open Homes 2025

Green Open Homes 2025 has landed ...

Our Green Open Homes season fills three weeks in November with insider advice, expert speakers, experiential insights and guided tours of local homes that have improved or are improving their domestic energy efficiency; by both hosts and architects.

It's all free and designed to encourage us all to reduce our emissions (and bills) and future-proof our homes: a key contribution to Net Zero that we can all be making.

Find out what's involved, what works and what it costs ... Get inspired, informed and encouraged ... Ask all those difficult questions from those who have done it ... See renewables in action and all the easy fixes along the way ...

We are very excited by this year's offer, which includes...

• 45 tours of 10 trailblazing houses, across N6, N8 and N10, through two weekends (8th & 9th and 15th & 16th November), covering a wide range of homes, solutions and installations
• 5 of them new to Green Open Homes, including period retro-fits, a garden flat and mid-construction builds, with the opportunity to see the bare bones of an energy efficient build
• Architect-led tours of four stunningly designed homes, offering rare insights into the practicalities, science and creativity behind an eco-build
• Three evenings of eight expert speakers (3rd, 10th & 17th November), from installers to creatives to researchers, including Bean Beanland (Heat Pump Federation & formerly of the Happy Heat Pump podcast with Evan Davies) and David James (Research Fellow at the trailblazing Energy House Lab, University of Salford)

And plough through a packed programme ...

The moany bit ...
Please only book if you know that you can attend, or give us as much notice as possible to release spare tickets to waiting lists. Our hosts are so magnanimous in opening their homes up for tours, each of which is oversubscribed, so no-shows mean that others miss out. Thank you!

The grateful bit ...
And our enormous thanks to those hosts, the architects involved and our programme of brilliant speakers, all of whom are so generously giving us their time, expertise, knowledge, weekends and homes, to help others.
