Let's Do Things Differently

The Oundle Transition Town Group (OTTG) was set up to help our local community reduce the use of fossil fuels and to promote greener lifestyles.

We are a voluntary group, founded on traditional values - helping each other, sharing knowledge and pooling skills – but we look to the future - exploring ways to do more but use less, embracing new and alternative technologies to improve living standards and lessen our reliance upon increasingly expensive and polluting energy sources.

Our current projects include:

providing local householders with a free home energy assessment and support to reduce their household bills and carbon footprint. Click here for details

a local skills exchange programme –enabling people to offer their time and skills in exchange for other people's. Click here for details

the development of a community garden.

a searchable database of local food suppliers.Click here for details

Added to which we have information on local people’s own experiences of taking steps to reduce their energy bills and their carbon footprint.  Have a look at David Wood's guidelines.

Please join us and bring your ideas to the group. Our work will have a significant impact if many people make a few changes to the way they live their lives - many hands make light work!
