When John Thurso MP visited ATTG in February, he drew out the winner from the responses to our survey that was distributed in November. Congratulations to Liam Miller from Coulpark, who wins four low-energy lightbulbs, a standby saver and a power monkey – a portable solar charger for mobile phones and mp3 players. All of these energy-saving gadgets will reduce Liam’s annual electricity bill by as much as £40 and save the same amount of CO2 as would be emitted by a return car journey from Alness to Stranraer.

Households across Alness received something important in the post over the last two weeks of November. Alness Transition Town Group has been working with the Energy Saving Scotland advice centre for the Highlands and Islands to send out a Home Energy Check form. The Energy Saving Trust’s survey is a series of questions on the type of house you live in and how it is heated that is used to create a personalised energy report.
