Groundwork Five Counties Groundwork Five Counties – Green Doctor service
Funded Project: Description
Their fully trained, experienced coaching team will provide bespoke energy saving advice through home visits to those most in need.
Support will include showing residents how to take meter readings, understand their energy bills, and exploring ways of reducing their bills. They will also look around the home to identify energy-inefficient lightbulbs and check for draughts. The team will fit new energy saving measures at no cost to residents, helping to reduce energy usage and keep homes warm, for less.
Their coaches will help households to understand what they could save by changing behaviours whilst using appliances, alongside demonstrating how to effectively use their heating system. Return visits and remote support will be delivered to check in on progress.
They will also identify additional needs during their home visits, allowing for referrals to other service providers such as grants and debt support, to improve residents health and wellbeing.
