The Midlands Divas met face to face yesterday in Nottingham for a site visit and talk on the district heating system in the city, all of which was very kindly hosted by Nottingham City Council and EnviroEnergy. It was a brilliant, informative day, and of course, a great opportunity to gather some divas together for some great conversations and a cuppa! Thank you so much to all who came, we hope you enjoyed the day as much as we did! 😊
