Remember to turn off the tap while brushing your teeth – a running tap wastes over 6 litres per minute.

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

Using lids on your pans when cooking will save energy and help heat the contents quicker.

Boiling food on the hob? Only use the water you need to save energy.

Thermal or heavy blinds and curtains can help trap heat and reduce draughts. Close them at night to reduce heating bills.
