Rising energy bills are one of the biggest concerns this winter – but what can you do to save money?

There are several simple steps you can take to reduce your energy bills. As well as reducing the amount of energy you use in your home, you can also save money by switching to a different tariff or supplier: it is well known that consumers who don’t regularly switch energy suppliers are highly likely to be on the most expensive tariffs.

During Big Energy Savings Week (20-26 January 2020), we are running a series of drop-in advice sessions where you can meet our Energy Champion for free one-to-one tailored advice.

Our Energy Champion will:

• Give impartial advice and support on suitable tariffs or the cheapest way to pay bills
• Support you to take control over your tariff and supplier and get the best deal to suit you and your needs
• Tell you about schemes offered by Government or the energy suppliers that could help with your energy costs and provide support in applying for these efficiency offers

Who should attend?

Anyone who is looking to reduce their energy bills and would like free personalised advice on energy saving in the home, switching energy suppliers, different energy tariffs and available support.
