A fantastic opportunity to visit Trust Links House, the first non-domestic new build Passivhaus in the UK.  Simmonds Mills Architects were commissioned by the charity Disability Essex. The brief called for a sustainable building that would provide office and meeting room spaces for the charity's staff, clients and visitors, as well as providing letable space for the charity to rent out to similar organisations.

The Centre for Disability Studies has been designed as two buildings a North Wing and a South Wing, linked by a atrium. The brief required a combination of high levels of thermal comfort, low running costs and low CO2 emissions. There is a bank of solar panels to generate electricity on site in order to create an income stream and further reduce emissions.

During Trust Link's open day, there will be a solar engineer on site to give two tours with information about the PV system and building at 11:30 and 13:30. The event is part of the National Big Green Week and there are a number of other activities and stalls to visit.
