Did you know one of the best ways to prepare for winter is to test your heating now?

It might feel early but switching it on, even just briefly, helps make sure everything’s working before the cold sets in. If there’s a problem, you’ll have time to report it and get it fixed.

💡 Keeping your home warm plays a big part in preventing damp and mould.

If you're worried about the cost of heating your home this winter, please don’t struggle alone. Call us on 0800 833160, our Housing Support team is here to listen and guide you through the help available.

It's Pension Awareness Week!

When did you last check your State Pension age?

If you're not sure, this is the perfect time to add it to your to-do list.

All you need is your date of birth and it only takes a minute to check on GOV.UK. It's a small step, but a useful one, whether you're years away from retirement or it's much closer.
