Healthy Homes Visits
The Healthy Homes visits are delivered by Frome Town Council’s Healthy Homes team and the fantastic Energy Advice Volunteers. They have all completed the CSE Energy Essentials workshop, and some have had the opportunity to complete the City and Guilds Level 3 Energy Awareness course.

The volunteers provide general energy advice and can help with:
- Cold and damp, mould and insulation
- Help understand energy bills
- Help understand and set up heating controls
- Help with the hire and use of the thermal imaging camera
- Install draughtproofing, radiator panels, thermal curtains, hot water tank jackets etc – these have been funded by FRECo
- If appropriate they can refer to CSE for grant funded energy improvements, or help with supplier issues and energy related debt.
