What difference will this make ?

Full draught-proofing will save on average £100 or more per year. Draught-free homes are comfortable at lower temperatures – so you’ll be able to turn down your thermostat. This could save you another £60+ per year

Is there a cost to me?

We do not ask for payment, but if you are able to make a donation towards the cost of materials used that will enable us to support another household

How do visits work ?

We will contact you in advance to arrange a suitable date and time to call. Two volunteers will visit, and the assessment and fixing is normally done within two hours

Can you improve my insulation ?

We will advise you if your insulation looks as if it could be improved, and can give contact details for installers, but we can't do this work for you
