Lockleaze Energy Advice Drop In Event Jan 2026

Posted .


A huge thank you to all of the residents who attended last week’s free event- the weather wasn’t kind but the atmosphere inside was warm and welcoming.
We are working hard to regularly bring together the providers you want to meet in person, for free, under one roof. It’s all to support you be more proactive about your energy choices, save money and keep your home warm.


You bought your questions and your curiosity and you left with lots of free advice,
recommendations, booked appointments and goody bags too. You left with actions you can take forward to make positive change for yourselves.

I found out about Centre for Sustainable Energy and got some really helpful information about insulation

I’ve booked a thermal imaging survey so I’ll know what things I need to do

Thank you, it was really useful and helpful


This free event was part of our #WarmWelcomeWeek programme, which also included The Horfield and Lockleaze Community Awards and The Hubbub Cafe with advice drop ins. A massive thank you to all our partners for attending and making advice more accessible for all.


We inform you about all our events on social media, on our website, with leaflets at The Hub, with posters and in our newsletter. And this time we were delighted to be invited to promote this event on the BBC Radio Bristol Breakfast slot with the man himself Joe Sims! Thanks for always being community focused Joe.
