Don't use your energy worrying!

The project will deliver energy advice and support to elderly residents and those most in need. Including individuals with long-term conditions, sensory impairments, physical health challenges, and low-income backgrounds.

Alongside energy saving advice the project will provide practical assistance in making small but effective home energy efficiency changes, helping to reduce energy consumption and lower costs. This includes installing simple adjustments such as draught-proofing, energy-efficient lighting, and optimising heating controls to maximise warmth while minimising waste.

In addition, they will support residents with tailored advice to help them make informed decisions when searching for and switching to the most cost-effective energy tariffs, ensuring they are not overpaying for their energy.

The project will also offer hands-on support in dealing with energy providers, assisting with billing queries, negotiating manageable payment plans, dealing with energy arrears and helping individuals understand their energy usage. 

By empowering people with the knowledge and confidence to manage their energy costs effectively, they aim to reduce financial anxiety and enhance their ability to maintain a warm, secure, and independent home environment.
