The energy crisis is hitting everyone. In Lyme Regis and Charmouth as elsewhere, there are many older properties which can be draughty and difficult to heat.
Green Councillor Belinda Bawden organised the recent Home Energy Workshop in Lyme Regis. Saving energy and money goes hand in hand!
It was Belinda who set up the Lyme Area Community Energy Champions scheme, where volunteers offer energy-saving tips and home surveys with a thermal camera, which shows up cold and leaky spots.
Belinda Bawden said: “Just some simple steps are needed to make your home more energy efficient – contact the energy champions for advice. We’re grateful to the town councils, Dorset Community Energy and the 2030 Vision project for funding support.”
