NCH Energy Smart People and Communities

Partnering with Warm Wales and National Energy Action (NEA), Newport City Homes will provide a team consisting of trained Community Workers to provide light touch energy advice, looking to reduce fuel expenditure and improve energy efficiency of their homes. Warm Wales community workers will provide in-depth energy advice and education along with energy saving packs. In addition, Warm Wales will work with social prescribing projects and wellbeing to support customers to engage in activities to improve their health and well-being. Awareness training for those that are first point of contact for customers will be implemented, so that fuel poverty can be identified and prevented. Fuel debt and energy awareness training will be provided by NEA to give direct support to households to create warmer, safer, healthier and energy smarter communities in Newport.
