Renovation Workshop - Saturday 8th November (10:00 – 16:00)
Transform your home with confidence! Whether you''re extending your home, breathing new life into a tired property, or making energy-efficient upgrades, our brand-new Renovation Workshop offers expert-led advice and practical guidance to help you renovate smarter, more sustainably and within budget. We have created this new event based on feedback from our visitors who tell us they are interested in improving their homes to create more space, reconfigure existing layouts, reduce energy bills or future-proofing for more accessible living. You’ll hear from renovation specialists throughout the day, with opportunities to speak with them directly during 1:2:1 consultations. Share your ideas, ask questions, and get tailored advice to help you make informed decisions for your project.
Opening Times: 10:00 to 17:00
Market Day - Friday
On the second Friday of every month, many of our exhibitors will be at their displays, to engage with visitors during our informal and relaxed ‘market days’. Providing the perfect opportunity to progress your project, each date will also feature a free guided tour of our new build educational zone.
Opening Times: 10:00 to 17:00
Passivhaus Workshop
The Passivhaus standard is designed to deliver comfort, quality and lower running costs, in any type of building. We spend most of our time indoors, so buildings play an important part in our health and wellbeing. The most successful and cost-effective way of achieving Passivhaus is by incorporating the standard before your designs are complete. It’s also useful if the Passivhaus elements are included in your planning application. Take advantage of this free workshop and ensure you have the right team behind you for your Passivhaus home. This workshop will offer a full timetable of seminars, question time sessions and live guided tours from the NSBRC technical experts.
Opening Times: 09:00 to 17:00
