Insulation & Heating grants fiasco
Ensure that the elderly, low income and disabled live in warmer, affordable homes.
Grants on offer at present, along with The Green Deal are just not fit for purpose, far too complicated for most to apply. Companies have to be green deal approved, and therefore charge inflated prices. Endless EPC reports mean nothing.

Why is this important?
ECO heating is just not affordable to most, with quotes of around £40,000 for a just a GSHP, and a loan on offer of £10,000.
Disabled and living with no insulation, heating or hot water for two years I have battled the system, Grants, loans, ECO, Green Deal, all these well paid "helpers" are no help, EST, REA, RECC, NAPIT, TRUSTMARK, MCS, this list of "approved" installers, along with the energy companies, and the worst of all British Gas.
No one cares or listens, pages of letters no one can explain why help that is on offer is not accessible. Meanwhile the government funded agencies continue to profit.
The Energy saving trust tells you you must use an RECC approved installer, RECC is part of REA, why is the CEO of the EST also the boss of REA?
Have you had problems trying to access the help to improve your insulation and heating? if so sign this petition, lets see if the DECC will listen.
