WOW this looks FAB - I wish I still live in Brighton. Further info - http://www.brightonpermaculture.co.uk/gad/index.html

• Stalls and exhibitions
• Illustrated talks by designers, practitioners and professionals

A day of ideas and information for anyone concerned with buildings - those who design them, build them, live in them or work in them. Some of the talks this year follow the theme of eco-renovation - from painting your bedroom to making the most of old housing stock.
