You are warmly invited to join WeCanMake + Knowle West Media Centre at our community micro-factory for a special showcase where you can find out about the neighbourhood “retrofit” action taking place in Knowle West, and learn how you too can play a role in the care, repair and adaptation of your home, your street, and the wider neighbourhood.

Programme (timings tbc)

  • Make a draught excluder : Stop those wintery chills from creeping in! Decorate, stuff and sew a draught excluder for yourself or as a gift;
  • The Future Is Already Here film screening: The film tells the story of Retrofit Reimagined – a festival celebrating community action, which invites others to come together to imagine how our streets, neighbourhoods and cities might be “retrofitted” and adapted to meet the growing challenges we face;
  • Talks and workshops: Hear from residents of our local ‘Retrofit Street’ and other pioneering voices shaping neighbourhood retrofit across the country, including CIVIC SQUARE, Retrofit Balsall Heath, National Retrofit Hub and more;
  • Tips on how to get your home winter ready, and find your street’s solar energy potential! Is your street prime for being powered by the sun?
  • Food and drink.
