Making your home more energy efficient and environmentally friendly is a great opportunity to reduce energy bills and do your bit for the environment and reduce your carbon footprint.
What funding is available?
We've been awarded Government funding through the Home Upgrade Grant scheme, which means you could be eligible to receive a free grant of up to £38,000.
What can I use the fund for?
Funding can be used for a variety of insulation measures such as cavity wall, loft, external wall, park home and underfloor insulation as well as solar PV and thermal panels, air source heat pump and smart heating controls.

The eligibility criteria is as follows:
- The property must not be heated by mains gas
