Big thanks to TTW director Rolf Londal for a lot of work on the retrofit video that was filmed by TTW Chair Steve Limbrey, with assistance on sound by Ryan Haines and Claire Hunt, back in January.
It’s finally available (after a lot of frustrating computer malfunctions during the editing process) on our YouTube Channel and can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3LgGorRwEA
It’s a long video but it does contain lots of helpful information from local retrofit architect Sarah Kemp, Dave Burholt from Re-Gen Builders (both in the form of a slide show) and the rest of the panel. Maybe you can watch it in small chunks…
Starting to get things planted out at last at our community allotments, hope the slugs and snails don't nuke them though! ... See MoreSee Less

Another very busy Repair Cafe on Saturday. Our wonderful repairers never fail to amaze us by mending things that they've been told cannot be mended, or have been quoted astronomic sums for a potential repair, when it actually takes 20 minutes to sort it out!
Sadly it's not possible to mend everything that's brought in but it's always worth coming along to check stuff out. Please always think before you throw!

Really good group at Climate Resilience Centre Worthing - CREW on Saturday for our workshop about practical ways to reduce flood risk and pollution from surface water run off. Lisa and I covered making rain gardens and storm water planters to slow the flow, Ryan shared details of using harvested rainwater to flush a loo and Vernon explained how to build soakaways and add one-way valves to drains to prevent sewage water backing up into properties during flooding. See Transition Town Worthing CIC website Resources for handouts and a You Tube film on building rain gardens. And pop into CREW to add any locations of known flood risk spots to a flood risk map of Worthing and Lancing. ... See MoreSee Less

What a joy it is to run a repair cafe - there are some wonderful stories to share and it's so good to know that you are not only saving something from being dumped, but you are also bringing happiness into someone's life when their much treasured possessions are brought back to life. Do take a look through these photos and you will see what I mean. Our team of repairers are so talented - willing to try to fix most things and are really kind, helpful and good fun - what more could we wish for. ... See MoreSee Less
