Switch off radiators in any rooms you are not using regularly and keep internal doors shut to save energy.

Only fill your kettle with the water you need. You will save both water and energy.

Properly used, dishwashers use less water and energy than washing dishes by hand. However, make sure you only wash full loads and don’t pre-rinse everything in the sink first unless it really needs it.

Every degree you turn your home thermostat down could save you around £80 to £85 a year on your heating bill.

Draught excluders are a cheap way of cutting out the chill from poorly fitting doors and windows. Most are also easy to fit, a simple DIY task.

Make sure your radiators are clear so they can heat the space efficiently. Curtains or furniture can easily block them.
