Energy
At the time of writing there’s lots of talk about the increase in the cost of domestic heating oil and energy prices going up again in the not too distant future. Hopefully by the time you read this it will all have settled. If it hasn’t and you need advice and support, then Act On Energy can provide this. “We help people across the West Midlands, Worcestershire and Warwickshire with their energy needs by offering a full home energy support service with free and impartial advice.”. They can be contacted through their website www.actonenergy.org.uk/contact or by calling 0800 988 2881.
Energy Savings Trust also has their Top 10 energy saving tips, with a graph showing how much you could potentially save www.energysavingtrust.org.uk/hub/quick-tips-to-save-energy/ Whilst some of the things might not add up to much, the more you do the more you save.
Gardens
We’ve had a few days of sunshine and slightly warmer weather, and it’s time to start thinking about the gardening year ahead. If you can, leave tidying up and cutting back until it’s a bit warmer. The invertebrates will thank you. It’s also time to start planting flower seeds – we’ve got some wildflower seed saved from last year if anyone would like some – please contact us via the email address below.
