The Wandle Valley Low Carbon Zone (WVLCZ) is an area in a small part of South Mitcham in the Phipps Bridge, Cherry Tree and New Close Estates.

 

The aim is to make a 20% cut in CO2 emissions by March 2012 for the whole area. You can help make this happen by booking your FREE Green Doctor appointment. Collectively, as of October 2011 residents have already helped save 130 tonnes of CO2 and over £27,000!

 

Our team are completely reliant on the help, support and enthusiasm of all those living and working in the Zone's community. Although we have already made significant steps to achieving our goal we still have far to go.

 

If you’re a resident in the Zone who wants to save money on your energy bills then get in touch by emailing: WVLCZ@merton.gov.uk or call the Green Doctors on 020 8687 4050.

Our work with Haslemere

 

The WVLCZ has done a lot of great work with Haslemere since our project began in March last year. Take a look at just some of the great stuff we have been doing with Haslemere.

 

·          Installation of Solar Panels

·         We have installed water saving measures such as eco toilet controls and water saving taps.

·         We have also introduced new educational software into the school. This computer software package known as Carbon Hub will allow children to learn more about climate change and monitor CO2 emissions from their school. It also provides site managers with better data to show where their energy bills are really being spent.

·         Haslemere Primary School have also contributed to many Friends of Phipps Bridge events such as several litter clear ups in the area and the Phipps Bridge Summer Picnic where the school choir even performed!
