Basingstoke and Deane Green Team
Our trained experts can give you free help to cut carbon, save money and encourage wildlife – all at the same time.
Our team’s free services
Save money with a free home energy survey
Book a free home energy survey to learn how you could save £100s a year on your bills and cut carbon by using less energy at home.
It takes just an hour. You’ll then get a plan with easier and more involved actions you can take.
Help native wildlife with a free garden survey
Book a free garden survey to find out how you can help our native plants and wildlife thrive in your garden.
The survey takes just an hour. Once it’s done, you’ll be sent top tips to help your garden flourish.
Save money and cut carbon with top travel tips
Our Green Team can help you find footpaths and cycle ways for shorter journeys – and bus routes and community transport services for longer trips – that can save you money and cut your carbon footprint.
The team also leads free activities in schools and offers green reviews to local businesses. Learn more on the borough council’s website.
