There’s a range of support, tips, advice and grants, available in Oxfordshire.

The free, local and independent Better Housing Better Health service is there for residents who may be finding it hard to keep themselves or their family warm and well. For some residents they
can offer a home visit to provide more tailored advice and support.

Referrals can be made to grant schemes for new heating or better insulation, making money go further. This year there are more grant schemes available than previous years for energy efficiency measures like loft and cavity wall insulation and some schemes’ eligibility criteria has changed.
