We are a network of like-minded people concerned about climate change and wanting to take action locally in Otterbourne and Allbrook. We want to make positive changes in areas like biodiversity, transport, better-insulated housing and renewable energy within our Parishes.
We first held a Climate Cafe at Otterbourne Village Hall in January 2024 and have met since to discuss what we can do.
We would love to hear from other residents also concerned about the planet warming and wanting to get involved! Please email: [email protected]
We are planning three events to which all local residents are welcome. These are:
Winchester Climate Action Network (WeCAN) Presentation to OPC

Home Energy Efficiency Grants
Hampshire County Council funds an advice service that is free for all residents (0800 804 8601 – the Environment Centre) to offer advice on government grants that can fully or partly fund home improvements including new heating systems, insulation and solar PV. Some grants take into account income levels. Some grants are based on health conditions or age alone, so that you can qualify for home improvement grants if anyone in your household meets one of the following categories: Is pregnant; or, has a cardiovascular condition; has a respiratory condition (e.g. chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or childhood asthma); has a mental health condition; has any disabilities; is aged 65 and older; is a child aged 5 or under.
