May 15, 2022 10:41 AM

As the cost of living crisis continues to go unaided by the government here are some (limited) schemes that may be able to help ease the burden

Green Homes Grant Local Authority Delivery Scheme	If you're an Essex homeowner with a household income below £30,000, you may be eligible for up to £10,000 of work to make energy efficient improvements to your home. This could include fitting loft insulation, cavity or solid wall insulation or energy efficient heating (does not include gas or oil). The funding covers the entire cost of the improvements, up to £10,000.	More information here
