How to get in touch with our team
If higher water, gas or electricity bills are getting to be a problem for householders, Groundwork’s team of Green Doctors can prescribe a cure.
A pilot Green Doctor project is running in Kettering and Daventry, offering home visits and advice on energy, explaining how to access grant support for improvements and giving support on other environmental issues such as recycling, composting and water use, Green Doctors are showing people in target areas around the country how to make their homes more environmentally friendly and cheaper to run.
Green Doctor ‘remedies’ are aimed at reducing fuel poverty in the most vulnerable families. Their service can reach out to the elderly, the disabled and those in low income family households via home visits, whilst Green Doctor workshops are available for groups of tenants and residents, with information packs setting out a range of technical and non-technical measures.
In some areas partnerships are being developed which mean Groundwork’s team undertakes large scale contracts to audit groups of houses or works with housing association residents across an entire region.
