Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) has secured £1.8 million from the Warm Homes Fund, which is a national fund which has been established by National Grid and is administered by Affordable Warmth Solutions. It will offer a helping hand to households struggling to afford to stay warm and those who are vulnerable to the cold that do not currently have a central heating system.

The scheme is running throughout 2018-19 but is operating on a first-come, first-served basis and will close to new applications once all the funds have been allocated.

The aim of the funding is to help those who have the most expensive heating systems get out of fuel poverty and have more affordable energy bills.
