Description

The Adult Social Care and Health Department's Public Health Division at East Sussex County Council is tendering for the provision of a Warm Home Check Service for the eligible population of East Sussex as part of the East Sussex fuel poverty reduction programme.

The Warm Home Check Service is a vital element of the East Sussex fuel poverty reduction programme. This programme is coordinated by the East Sussex Energy Partnership and aims to protect individuals and communities from the effects of living in a cold home. Its ambition is to ensure that practical advice and support is provided to vulnerable people about how to stay warm and well at home, and where to get further specialist help, in order to reduce the number of households that are fuel poor.

The Warm Home Check service will provide eligible vulnerable households with a holistic home energy and fuel poverty focused home assessment, advice on how best to keep their home warm and advice on financial support available to help with heating costs. Following identification of measures required to improve energy efficiency within the home, the service will deliver small preventative works such as improving insulation, draught-proofing, repairing boilers and providing emergency temporary heating. The service will also coordinate and source funding for the installation of high-cost heating and insulation measures available through schemes such as the Energy Company Obligation (ECO) and other external funding.
