- Home Upgrade Grant. Come and meet representatives from OVO Energy, Inclusion Cornwall and our Public Health team so they can advise whether you may be eligible to apply for a Home Upgrade Grant to make your home more energy efficient.

- You live in your property full time

Members of the public can also find out more about home energy efficiency measures and view some of the technology being used to improve home energy efficiency.
