Big Green Home Show logoChoosing to live green can take up a lot of energy, and even if you're committed to caring for the environment it's not easy to know where to start.

At the Big Green Home Show at The National Self Build & Renovation Centre in Swindon, choosing to include some eco-friendly features in your home needn't mean keeping chickens or giant compost heaps.

In fact, the show offered lots of suggestions - like loos that flush using run-off rainwater from the roof - plus some easy-fix ideas you can use right away.

There was a host of fantastic seminars and real-life case studies too.

Aga and Rayburn were at the show, with information about the AIMS Aga, wood-burning Rayburns and the Aga stoves, Masterchef Deluxe and the A-rated Rayburn 480CD and the Rayburn 800 on display.
