ENERGY SUPPORT UNIT

 From 1st December 2022, residents of the Point and Sandwick area are invited to call a new, dedicated phone line to speak with one of the Energy Support Unit (ESU) advisors and discuss their energy needs.  This confidential phoneline: 07887 371887 will be open between 10am-4pm, Monday to Thursday.

The new service aims to:

•  Work with local people to identify and signpost them to relevant schemes to help keep Point and Sandwick homes warm this winter
• Deliver the Point and Sandwick Fuel Hardship Fund – a confidential, targeted hardship fund dedicated to helping vulnerable households manage their electricity and heating bills through the winter
• Assess the key drivers of fuel poverty in our area and make recommendations to the local and national government.

 The Energy Support Unit is designed and delivered confidentially by Muirneag Consulting, Iain (Dan) Morrison and Stewart Wilson (formerly of Tighean Innse Gall) and financed by income from our community wind farm.  All personal information shared with the ESU advisors is confidential and will not be disclosed to PST Board members and will comply with the Muirneag Consulting privacy policy.
