Win the Home of the Future: Great British Refurb campaign
teams up with 10:10

The Grand Designs Great British Refurb campaign has teamed up with the 10:10 campaign to offer one lucky person a whole house eco-makeover worth £15,000, courtesy of community regeneration experts Keepmoat.

After a recent project to retrofit a Victorian terraced house in Manchester, the campaign partners are scaling up their ambitions to upgrade a house into the Home of the Future – warmer, more comfortable, less expensive to run, and a whole lot better for the climate too.

It’s all about showing people what they can do to make their homes more climate-friendly. The winning home will get a combination of the latest energy-efficiency measures, donated by Knauf Insulation, and solar panels provided by the UK’s leading solar energy company, Solarcentury.

As Grand Designs TV presenter Kevin McCloud puts it: “We’re not beyond a little financial inducement or the razzamatazz of a good old fashioned competition. Which is why 10:10 has teamed up with its sister campaign, the Great British Refurb to launch this chance to win a low-carbon makeover of your home.

“It’s another example of everybody benefiting. You get a draught-free, comfortable, healthy home; you save hundreds of pounds a year in heating costs; you improve the value of where you live; and you give the environment a break by not heating the planet with your boiler.”

Enter the competition for chance to win a home eco-makeover.

The Home of the Future competition closes on 13 November 2009.

The Great British Refurb campaign is a partnership between Existing Homes Alliance members the Energy Saving Trust, the UK Green Building Council and WWF.
