Energy Advice and Support


Birmingham has over 100,000 households living in fuel poverty. We have partnered with nPower so that our energy advisers can provide you with FREE light-touch or in-depth advice at community events or workshops and through home visits.

We can help you to: 

  • Save money on energy bills   
  • Make simple changes for a warmer, more energy efficient home 
  • Improve your health and well-being   
  • Reduce carbon emissions   
Energy advice and support in Birmingham, supported by npower Business Solutions Foundation

FREE energy advice:

From short conversations to home visits from our trained energy advisors.  

FREE energy saving items:

These include things like LED lightbulbs, draught excluder tape, window insulation, radiator reflector foil and other smaller items that can help keep your home warmer and more energy efficient. 

FREE Information and Guidance:

Learn about what grants are available to support your journey to having a warmer, cheaper and more comfortable home. If you have concerns such as the cost of your energy bills, your house always being cold, mould or damp in the property then please get in touch. We would love to chat and see how we can help.  

Our trained advisors will listen to your concerns and give you advice on what measures you can put into place. Having these important conversations will leave you empowered to make the necessary changes.
