These Energy Advisers will offer home energy checks and advice sessions with the aim to help you reduce your fuel bills and where possible identify a grant or benefit you may be entitled to.
The Energy Advisers also visit community centres, organizations, small groups, or link up to existing events to offer talks and information of saving energy.
