A month since the Cumbria Wildlife Trust announced their bid to buy and ecologically revive Skiddaw Forest. They're 91% of the way there, but donations have slowed. Chip in if you can to help get them over the line. And please share this post.

Yes I have an old research collaborator who lives in Finland and who extols the virtues of heat pumps used in older properties there.
Yes our windows are a weak point for us. All single glazed and draughty frames and doors. Also moisture is an issue as the back of the property is built into a hillside and below ground level. The ventilation helps to lower the humidity!

That’s encouraging. We also have a stone built 17th C Grade II listed property in the Dales but most local heating engineers recommend staying with a high temperature heat source (oil).
