Help for those in fuel poverty

If you live in fuel poverty, don't have a central heating system and your property has an Energy Performance Certificate Rating of E, F or G, you could be eligible for a grant of up to £4,000 to have a new central heating system installed. The funding is available until 31st August 2016.

You can read more here. Further information and energy efficiency advice is available by calling the Warm and Well advice line on 0800 500 3076, by emailing warm&well@severnwye.org.uk or by texting ‘WARM’ to 83010.

Anyone considering installing a central heating system should also ensure that their home is insulated. You may be entitled to a grant for cavity wall and loft insulation through the Warm and Well scheme, which can save £160 per year on fuel bills. All grants are subject to a survey and availability.
