Energy & Warmth

Stratford-on-Avon District Council is committed to alleviating fuel poverty and ensuring that affordable warmth is available to everyone. We are working in partnership with other councils and organisations to contribute to affordable warmth in South Warwickshire.

Please click the links below to read about the various grants and schemes which are available to help with fuel costs and improving home energy efficiency. Some of these are available through UK government ‘Help to Heat' funding.

These schemes are complex and can be confusing. If you would like to get advice about what help might be available for your household, you can contact Act on Energy on (freephone) 0800 988 2881. Tips and hints for reducing energy costs can be found in the Energy Advice section, and support provided by other agencies and organisations is listed under Energy Support .

Local Authorities are required by section four of the Home Energy Conservation Act 1995 (HECA) to report on efforts being made to achieve energy conservation within their area. Our HECA report for 2017 provides further information on our progress.
