HERE COMES THE SUN! Solar on your rooftop, solar for your community, your school – and more @ St Michael's School
Apr 12 @ 10:00 am – 2:30 pm
HERE COMES THE SUN! Solar on your rooftop, solar for your community, your school – and more    @ St Michael's School | London | United Kingdom

A new event from the Highgate Society’s “21st Century Homes: character – comfort – low carbon” initiative.

HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED about putting solar panels on your roof to generate electricity or produce hot water?  Are you interested in how it can work on schools, community buildings or businesses?   Have you been thinking it might be interesting to put some funds into a community solar project?   Perhaps you are just interested to see how it works?

Then come to our Saturday event at St Michael’s school, Highgate – meet national and local experts, including installers, and speak with neighbours about their solar roofs!

Come and find out about

  • how a solar roof could work for you
  • current government incentives
  • what it costs
  • solar options for conservation areas
  • solar PV for electricity
  • solar thermal for hot water (and maybe even heating)
  • solar on schools and community buildings
  • what about investing in a community solar scheme?
  • planning guidelines and building regulations
  • finding professional advice
  • the solar revolution!

Swish and Style @ Jacksons Lane
Mar 26 @ 12:30 pm – 3:00 pm

Tired of your t-shirts? Wish you had some different dresses? Save money by bringing along your unwanted (but wearable) clothes to our Swish and Style event and go home with a new-to-you outfit, all for free!

It’s simple. Have a clear out and bring good quality clothes to one of our seven events. For each item you bring, you get a token that you can exchange for another garment (maximum 10 items). Everything is free, everything is clean and everything will be re-worn and re-loved.

How it works

For the first hour (12.30 – 1.30), everyone is invited to drop off their clothes, shoes and accessories that they want to donate. Whilst we busily sort them into style and hang them on hangers, you’ll be free to check out the workshops – learning how to do simple fixes to your clothes and how to upcycle them into something completely different – a jumper becomes a hot water bottle cover, a treasured Babygro becomes a patchwork memory blanket and an old t-shirt becomes a bag. If you have any clothes that need a little TLC, bring them along and our seamstress can fix them for you for free while you wait.

The from 2pm until 3pm, you get to look through all the clothes and choose what you want. If you love it, take it. It’s first come, first served – but no elbows please!

What can you bring?

Please bring along:

  • Clean and wearable clothes, shoes and accessories
  • No damage, holes and stains
  • You can bring women’s, men’s, children’s and baby clothes
  • No underwear please, unless in sealed, unworn condition

Anything that we deem unacceptable will be given back to you and you will not be given a token. We have the right to turn away any item.

Please note only adults will be allowed at events. Parents with children under the age of 12 can bring them but they must remain under the parents’ supervision at all times.

Any clothes that are left over at the end of the event will be donated to the Salvation Army.
