There is a borough-wide insulation partnership scheme which launched at the start of September last year. Telegraph Hill Ward is now eligible and officers will contacting residents to try and make sure as many people as possible find out about and take up the scheme.
They are working in partnership with Saving Energy Ltd to offer Lewisham residents discounted rates for insulation, cavity wall insulation is free and loft insulation is free if the home has less than 60mm of insulation, otherwise it is £179. These costs are flat rates irrespective of the size of the property, resident circumstances or current energy supplier.
The partnership is scheduled to run until September this year. We will be door-knocking in each ward for a couple of weeks, with the potential to adjust this if take-up is higher or lower in each ward than anticipated. Qualified surveyors will be going around each ward putting a letter through the door of properties they think could benefit from loft or cavity wall insulation.
The letter has information on how to sign up if people would like an appointment, or they don’t want to be contacted again. If Saving Energy Ltd haven’t been contacted, they will go back a couple of days later and door knock properties so they can talk to residents, explain how the scheme works and either do a survey of the property there and then or arrange a date and time to come back.
Information will also be circulated through borough-wide communications methods and if people are in a different ward they can also call up and make an appointment, there's no need to wait until we reach their ward.
Lewisham Council is keen to make sure that as many residents as possible get their homes insulated to help them reduce the cost of their energy bills and reduce the environmental impact of their home. Attached is a flyer which has the freephone number - 0800 954 9689 - to call for people to get a free survey to assess how much insulation is needed.
