The Warm Home Local Grant: Bringing Free Upgrades to Your Community

Everyone deserves a warm, energy-efficient home, but the cost of making improvements can feel overwhelming. That’s where the Warm Home Local Grant comes in—a scheme designed to bring free home upgrades to households who need them most.

At Warmify, we work with councils like Oxford City Council and Portsmouth City Council to deliver these improvements, helping local communities reduce bills and stay comfortable.

What is the Warm Home Local Grant?

The Warm Home Local Grant is funded by the government’s Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) and delivered through local councils. It provides fully funded home energy upgrades for eligible households.

If you qualify, you could get:

Loft insulation
Wall insulation (cavity or solid)
Air source heat pump
Solar panels
Heating controls
High heat retention storage heaters

All at no cost to you!
