WA resident writers shine

This year we hosted our first Resident Writing Competition, and what a success it has been! We received more than 20 entries from residents aged between their 30s to 90s spanning from the Metro area down to Bunbury. We had such a rich, wide variety of stories, poems, and reflections - making it no easy task to select the winners.
Why it’s worth signing up: • You’ll get a home energy assessment that maps where your power is going. • You may receive up to $100 worth of energy-saving items (LED globes, a clothes airer, etc.) to help get you started. • You’ll receive a custom report and action plan full of easy, practical tips tailored to your home. • You’ll learn how to save on heating, cooling, lighting and appliances.
