The Scottish Government is calling on Angus homeowners to get in touch with Home Energy Scotland to find out if they are eligible for funding to help make their homes warmer for less.

Up to £10,000 worth of home improvements may be available to homeowners who are currently in receipt of income-related financial support.

The Warmer Homes Scotland programme is funded by the Scottish Government and delivered by Warmworks, and provides energy efficiency home improvements such as wall and loft insulation, draught-proofing and climate friendly heating.

These improvements could help to lower energy bills and also make homes warmer for free. Last year almost 5500 homes across Scotland households benefitted, 136 of which were in Angus.

Homeowners can access the programme by contacting Home Energy Scotland, with the selected improvements dependent on a survey of the home being carried out to ensure the proposed changes are tailored to the home’s needs.

Harry Mayers, head of HES, said: “The improvements really can make a difference, completely changing the energy efficiency of a home. The results and benefits so many households have experienced shows that getting in touch with Home Energy Scotland is a positive move.”
