Possible topics
Choose a few useful questions, not a wall of jargon
- Why some homes are hard to keep warm or cool

- Where solar and batteries may fit
- How home energy ratings differ for new and existing homes

Format
A session that fits the audience and the time available
One clear topic with time for questions
Useful for an information night, staff session or community event where people need a practical overview without technical overload.
Examples, discussion and simple checks
Suitable when the group has more time and wants to work through home examples, compare claims or practise reading energy information.
Volunteer or paid?
Some talks may be offered as volunteer engagements. Sessions that need tailored material, travel, activities or extended preparation may be paid. We confirm the arrangement clearly before booking.

Questions
Community and school session FAQs
Are community sessions free?
Some speaking engagements may be offered on a volunteer basis and more involved sessions may be paid work. It depends on the audience, preparation, travel, presenter availability and materials. We confirm this before anything is booked.
Can you visit a school or community venue?
Possibly. In-person availability depends on the location, date and presenter. An online talk may suit groups outside our current travel areas. For schools, we also confirm supervision, child-safety and venue requirements before agreeing to a visit.
Can the content suit different age groups?
Yes, once we know the age range and learning goal. A primary-school activity, a senior-student discussion and a homeowner information night need different language, examples and session plans.
Do participants receive products or take-home materials?
Any hands-on items, demonstrations or take-home material are confirmed as part of the session plan. We do not promise products before the format, safety requirements and budget are agreed.
