At this time of year we don’t think about our heating systems, but it is important that we do and if you need help paying for heating and insulation improvements in your privately owned or privately rented home, you, your partner or civil partner may be able to get help from the government’s Warm Homes scheme.

The scheme provides a package of energy-efficiency and heating measures, tailored to each household.

The Warm Homes Scheme has two elements:

• Warm Homes

• Warm Homes Plus
