Whittington church group goes Green

It’s good when a few pounds from my County funding scheme can make the difference…

And the people that look after St Giles Church in Whittington have spent it wisely on a project which hits all the right buttons.

The project they came up with was two fold. Firstly to improve the look of the church at night by changing to vastly better lighting and secondly making that lighting more environmentally friendly. The latter, of course, underpins the village’s efforts with the help of WFEG to become one of the greenest communities in the country

The latter meaning that instead of each light being 4000 watts, they are now just 500 watts. An eighth of the power consumption but so much more light… that’s impressive!
