This Project is Funded by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.

Blackpool Council is looking to appoint a Service Provider to provide a small team to deliver practical 1 to 1 support and guidance to residents to help them understand domestic energy efficiency and how their behaviour can increase/decrease energy consumption. The ultimate aim is to lower the carbon emissions of individual properties, with a tangible benefit to the households in the form of reduced energy costs and household utility bills. The team, internally referred to as Eco Coaches, will visit residents homes to complete a domestic energy assessment providing room by room guidance to maximise the efficiency of the property. The visit also includes the installation of low cost energy saving devices such as draft proofing, low energy lightbulbs and radiator reflector panels.

Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF)
Following the publication of the Levelling Up White Paper the pre-launch guidance for the UKSPF was released on the 2 February 2022. It provides 2.6 billion pounds of new funding for local investment by March 2025.

The Investment Plan for the UKSPF is due to be confirmed mid - November over a three financial year period 2022/23 to 2024/2025, with all interventions due to end by March 2025.
