Warm Homes Action Group

Circles eco house

Background

The Warm Homes Action Group has been set up with the idea of improving the energy efficiency of the housing stock in the Berwick area. This will help to make the homes warmer, and so more healthy, cheaper to heat, and to have less of an environmental impact.

Colin Elliot Co-convenes the Action Group, along with Martin Laidler.

Objectives of our group

  • To improve the energy efficiency of the housing stock in the Berwick area.

  • To provide information to households about the benefits and importance of energy efficiency measures.

  • To enable households to apply for funding, such as ECO4 (Warmer Homes Grant) and ECO+, which will finance the installation of energy efficiency measures.

  •  To open up a conversation around climate change more generally across the Berwick area.

Starting point

Awareness raising across the Berwick area, with a 'finer grained' approach in certain residential areas, which are more likely to contain properties and households eligible for the available funding.
