Energy Advice
You may have high heating costs as a result of a health condition, or because your house is draughty and loses a lot of heat, or your boiler is old and inefficient. You may be on a low income.
All of these things can mean that people cut back on their heating use, or get into serious arrears with their supplier or cut back in other areas – such as food or essentials. None of these consequences are good for your physical, financial, or emotional wellbeing.
Citizens Advice Harlow is supporting fuel-poor residents from Essex to better afford their energy costs.
We can help with:
Maximising your income to make sure you are receiving all the benefits you are entitled to
Helping you with fuel debt – if you have already fallen into arrears (in some cases we can apply to trusts and foundations to help pay these off – giving you a fresh start)
Energy saving around the home
Energy tariffs - are you on the best one for you?
Access to grants for energy saving improvements – we can help you find the best scheme and help you apply
Access to emergency fuel payments
We can also provide free energy-saving devices around the home.
We’re helping people in Harlow and across Essex who are struggling with high energy bills to make their energy costs more affordable.
