Big Energy Saving Week

As part of Big Energy Saving Week (20th-26th January 2020) PECT will be helping you discover how to reduce your household carbon footprint and save on energy costs.
There is substantial evidence of the detrimental impact of fuel poverty on the physical and mental health of residents. We support residents who are struggling to pay their energy bills or cannot keep their home at a sufficient temperature.
We aim to reduce the numbers of people living with preventable ill health, and to help reduce energy usage and cut carbon.
Head to one of our events to meet our friendly and impartial advisor and to find out how we can help your household save energy.

Gaia’s Choir (Extinction Rebellion Peterborough)
Gaia’s Choir is an Extinction Rebellion choir based in Peterborough UK.
Our first public outing was to sing under the earth in Peterborough Cathedral, to accompany a die-in, since then we have sung at several protests and developed a lively diverse community.
We meet each Thursday between 6-7.30pm at the Soul Happy shop in Westgate Arcade.
All are welcome as long as they align to Extinction Rebellion Peterborough’s Principles and Values:
1. We have a shared vision of change
Creating a world that is fit for generations to come.
2. We set our mission on what is necessary
Mobilising 3.5% of the population to achieve system change – using ideas such as “Momentum-driven organising” to achieve this.
3. We need a regenerative culture
Creating a culture which is healthy, resilient and adaptable.
4. We openly challenge ourselves and our toxic system
Leaving our comfort zones to take action for change.
5. We value reflecting and learning
Following a cycle of action, reflection, learning, and planning for more action. Learning from other movements and contexts as well as our own experiences.
6. We welcome everyone and every part of everyone
Working actively to create safer and more accessible spaces.
7. We actively mitigate for power
Breaking down hierarchies of power for more equitable participation.
8. We avoid blaming and shaming
We live in a toxic system, but no one individual is to blame.
9. We are a non-violent network
Using non-violent strategy and tactics as the most effective way to bring about change.
10. We are based on autonomy and decentralisation
We collectively create the structures we need to challenge power. Anyone who follows these core principles and values can take action in the name of Extinction Rebellion.
Join us for fun, friendship and a chance to sing in peaceful protest.
There is no charge to attend but a donation to Extinction Rebellion Peterborough is welcomed.
