Norwich Eco Hub

Norwich is a fantastic city for groups working to address the Earth crisis and promote better living and taking action to tackle the environmental challenges we face and inspire others to get involved.

These groups often host inspiring talks, community actions, and events that bring people together to learn and have a positive impact.

Every month, we compile a list of all these events and send them out as an email newsletter to our subscribers.

Sign up to stay up to date and take every opportunity to learn, connect, and take action on the issues that matter most to you.

Our Power

Norfolk Communities Act on Energy

New initiative Our Power partners with groups in Norwich and Norfolk and collaborates with trusted community members to empower people to reduce energy usage and decarbonise homes. This initiative aims to lower energy bills, provide greater control over energy consumption, and support our planet.

Homes in Norwich, much like elsewhere in the UK, often suffer from poor insulation and rely on gas boilers, which significantly contribute to Norwich’s carbon footprint. As a result, higher energy bills are impacting health, well-being, and personal finances.

Our Power aim is to enhance home energy efficiency in various local communities and empower them to manage their energy usage. While full home retrofitting remains unaffordable for most, communities have the potential to save money by acting collectively—through bulk buying or using community buildings to generate energy.

Norwich Unity Hub

A community for people, place and planet under a shared roof
