Case study: Working with The Green Doctor
As part of the ‘Locality Plan’ developed and delivered in Dormanstown in Redcar, the community told us that they were struggling to pay their bills and manage their finances. We funded support from ‘Green Doctor’ over eight weeks to support the identified objective to support people to be more informed about how to reduce their energy usage and hopefully in turn save money on bills.
- In delivering this objective:
-
- 139 people were engaged, 34 of whom were Beyond Housing customers
- 22 partner organisations were engaged to support
- 17 homes were visited
- 22 telephone calls
- 3 drop-in appointments
- 16 information sessions held for the community to access.
- Through this, the community was provided with:
-
- Energy efficient light bulbs
- Radiator reflectors
- Dehumidifiers
- Warm clothing
- Support with understanding meters
- Support to understand bills and switching suppliers
- Dehumidifiers
- Hot water bottles.
