Community Connect

Join us on Wednesday 21 October, 11am-1pm for our monthly Community Connect session.

Enjoy a shared meal of homemade soup, hot drinks and friendly conversation in a warm and welcoming space. Alongside the food and company, we'll be sharing practical advice on keeping your home warm, comfortable and energy efficient, with different talks and workshops every month.

This month we'll be demonstrating how to bleed your radiators, a simple task that can help your heating system work more efficiently, improve heat distribution around your home and potentially reduce energy waste.

Come along to learn new skills, pick up money-saving tips, meet new people and help make the colder months a little warmer.

Everyone is welcome.

🏠 What is the Warm Homes Plan?

You may have heard about the Government’s Warm Homes Plan, but what does it actually mean for households?

The plan aims to upgrade five million homes by 2030 to help make homes warmer, more energy efficient and cheaper to heat, while also reducing carbon emissions. 🌱

It could support improvements such as:

- Better insulation
- Heat pumps
- Solar panels
- Other energy efficiency improvements
- Support to help households reduce their energy bills

With up to £15 billion in funding, the Warm Homes Plan is set to be one of the UK’s biggest programmes for upgrading homes.

💡 Why does this matter?
Improving the energy efficiency of our homes can mean less energy wasted, warmer homes in winter and potentially lower energy bills.

The Warm Homes Plan is still developing, so the details of how support will be delivered will continue to become clearer.
