With pressure on budgets and soaring energy costs, this small book will be worth its weight in gold to every local church.

It offers expert advice that will equip non-professionals to make informed decisions on making their church buildings more sustainable, understand sustainability technologies, help navigate changing permission processes and thus save time and money – and serve the Anglican mark of mission to care for creation.

Nigel Walter demystifies the topic of sustainability and provides a wealth of practical advice and quick-wins. He includes guidance on:

- developing a plan that suits your church;
- improving your maintenance practices;
- alternative ways to heat your church;
- where and how to get professional help ;
- navigating the new permission processes.

A helpful appendix lists numerous sources of further advice and guidance. Comprehensive in scope, authoritative in content, practical in outlook and written in lively, accessible language, no church should be without a copy of this essential guide.
