Energy saving advice sessions
Come to an energy advice drop-in session
Hackney Energy Advice Team (HEAT) runs regular drop-in sessions to support residents who are experiencing financial difficulties. The team includes advisors from Hackney Light and Power and CREW Energy, and the project is funded by UK Power Networks.
Come along if you need help:
- changing your energy supplier to get a better deal
- applying for energy grants, discounts and vouchers
- finding out how to lower your energy usage and save money
There will also be free energy-saving kits you can pick up. These contain energy efficient bulbs, draft excluders and radiator reflectors.
If you need more support after the session, an advisor may arrange a phone call or home visit.
