Welcome to Dorset Group

Who are we are and what do we do?
The Dorset group meets monthly alternating between informal venues. The group is open to all and we welcome anyone with an interest in sustainable building design and construction. The aim of the group is to share ideas and increase our knowledge base across all aspects of design and construction. We will organise visits to manufacturers to see new and innovative products, as well as installations where low carbon technologies have been applied.
