Warmer Homes campaign

We have been reminded of the Warmer Homes campaign which is a grant-funded scheme offering free funding for domestic energy efficiency improvement – especially important in this time of a cost of living crisis when our energy bills are so high. The finding was secured from the Green Homes Grant Local Authority Delivery Scheme and Home Upgrade Grant as part of a consortium of 21 local authority partners.

This energy efficiency scheme is available to homeowners who live in a property with an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) of D or below and have a household income of below £30,000 per year or are on specific means tested benefits. Tenants renting in the private sector can also apply if they meet this eligibility criteria but their landlords will be expected to contribute to the cost.

Fully-funded measures available include insulation, air source heat pumps, solar PV, high heat retention storage heaters and heating controls. Funding levels range from £10,000 to £25,000, depending on the applicant’s heating system.

If you have any questions about the scheme you can visit https://www.warmerhomes.org.uk/ or contact Gill.Daniel@horsham.gov.uk, lead officer at the Council, for this scheme.
