Do you have a neighbour
struggling to keep warm?
Recent fuel price rises combined with poorly
insulated homes mean there are thousands of
people struggling to keep warm in our area.
The 'Keep Shropshire Warm' initiative, run by
the Marches Energy Agency, will provide both
cavity wall insulation and roof insulation free
of charge to anyone over 70 years old or on
benefits, and at very low cost to anyone else.
The work will be carried out within weeks with
the minimum of hassle and paperwork. Remember
that a warm, well insulated house will also
be a cooler house during hot weather. Insulation
works both ways - keeping heat inside a house
in cold weather and keeping out too much heat
during hot weather!! If you know anyone who'd
like help, be a good neighbour!! Tell them about
this offer and if they would like advice and
help, then phone 'Keep Shropshire Warm' on 01743
277123.
