Who is eligible

If you get a disability or income-related benefit, you may be able to get a government Warm Front Grant. This is to help pay for heating and insulation improvements to your home. The grant can be up to £3,500 (or up to £6,000 in some cases).

Warm Front Grants are available in England only. In Wales the Home Energy Efficiency Scheme (HEES Wales) provides a grant to make your home warmer, more energy efficient, safer and more secure.
