Arran Eco Savvy Energy event, and more!


Environmental charity, Arran Eco Savvy, is working with Green Home Systems to provide a FREE energy event for all islanders.

When?  Tuesday 9th July 2024 3pm to 6pm

Where? The Ormidale Pavilion, Brodick, Isle of Arran 

Guaranteed to be packed with information, enthusiasm for cost/planet savings and know-how!  

Island-based environmental charity, Arran Eco Savvy is excited to build on the experience of the Green Islands project and facilitate action on recommendations from Energy Performance Certificate assessments and energy audits by working with Green Homes Systems to provide information to businesses and householders about energy improvements to their properties.

Arran Eco Savvy’s role is not here to make its own recommendations; it is to help provide access to householders and businesses by facilitating contact with accredited installers to implement their next cost saving and planet saving steps.

Green Home Systems are an accredited installer of energy efficiency and renewable energy installations and have taken the initiative to commit to travel to Arran to provide information about what they can do to support Arran householders and businesses with energy efficiency and renewable energy improvements.

Please let us know if you intend to attend by e mail to helen@arranecosavvy.org.uk

The Zero Waste Cafe has got loads going on with some exciting cafes and an outdoor cooking workshop at Brodick Castle. It is also popping up in Brodick and Kildonan. The team is also helping to organise the Summer Farm Day at Bellevue Farm, which will be a brilliant day out for all the family! The Active Travel Team will be at some cafes with some E-Bikes for people to try out and their snazzy bike decoration stations.

Throughout July the hub will be open from 4-6pm on Mondays for their new drop off sessions; which are perfect for dropping off E-Bike returns and dropping off any bikes that require repair or servicing. On Tuesday the 2nd the Active Travel Hub will be having an open day, the ZWC are visiting and Wally will be hosting a much requested bike repair demonstration! We have two nature walks running this month; Whiting Bay and Shiskine, the latter which finishes up with refreshments at our ZWC. We also have two Buggy Walk’s planned and one Social Walk!
