Energy grants
There are two main grants available in Southampton. These aim to help residents keep warm, and save money on heating bills.
Southampton City Council has a partnership with British Gas and their contractors Miller Pattison to provide insulation for residents at discounted prices or even free.
Who qualifies?
• residents who own their own home
• residents who rent from a private landlord
• residents who receive certain benefits, the work will be carried out free.
If you don’t receive benefits, the work is still subsidised. To find out more call: 0800 56 44 56.
The other main grant available is Warm Front. This provides energy efficiency and heating measures of up to £2,700, if you own your home, or rent it from a private landlord.

• you have a child under 16
• you are pregnant, and are in receipt of qualifying benefits
