Ways to save energy

 Some of our wonderful young people became Fuel Poverty Leaders and came up with some Top Tips for Energy Saving – we have spread these tips far and wide and hope they will be helpful to others. Here’s the young people’s ideas:

 Try not to use lights as much.

 Do less gaming – find other fun activities to do like board games and going outside to play.

 Take a shower instead of a bath 

 Turn your boiler down

 Turn temperature down on washing machine.

 Use a de-humidifier

 Use a clothes dryer to hang out washed clothes.

 Wear warm clothes, layer up!

 Wear onesies/ hoodie blankets in wintertime

 Don’t leave heating on when you go out. Use a timer.

 Do batch cooking – make lots of your favourite meals and it freeze it up.

 Unplug devices when you’re not using them.

We would like to say a huge thank you to the young people involved and also to the National Grid for funding this informative and helpful project
