Keeping Warm

Keeping warm over the winter months can help to prevent colds, flu and more serious health problems such as heart attacks, strokes, pneumonia and depression. If you can, you should heat the rooms you use regularly at home to at least 18°C.

There are grants, benefits and advice available to make your home more energy efficient, improve your heating or help with bills. You can find advice online at www.helpfourhouseholds.campaign.gov.uk or you can call the Government helpline on 0800 444 202.

The Citizens Advice Bureau can also provide help and advice. You can call them on 0808 278 7969 or visit their website. You can also drop in to their office in Southgate at The Orchard, 1-2 Gleneagles Court, Brighton Road, RH10 6AD.
