Frequently asked questions

Does Carer's Allowance qualify me for home energy grants in your area?

Carer's Allowance is a qualifying benefit under the Warm Homes Plan. If you receive it and your your area home has an EPC rating of D, E, F or G, you may be eligible for funded energy improvements. Submit the form to check what your household qualifies for.

Why are carers prioritised for home energy support?

Carers often have lower household incomes and spend more time at home, meaning heating costs are a bigger proportion of their budget. The Warm Homes Plan targets households most affected by fuel poverty, and Carer's Allowance claimants frequently meet the income and household vulnerability criteria.

What measures are available under the Warm Homes Plan?

Funded measures include loft insulation, cavity wall insulation, internal and external wall insulation, air source heat pumps, smart heating controls, and solar panels. The combination recommended depends on your your area property's current energy performance.

How much could I receive?

Eligible households can receive up to £30,000 in funded home improvements. The exact value depends on survey findings and which measures are appropriate for your your area property. The eligibility check and survey are both free.

Can a private tenant who receives Carer's Allowance apply?

Yes, if your landlord gives written permission for the work to be carried out. If you own your home outright or have a mortgage, you can apply directly. Submit the form and we will confirm the options available in your situation.

Is the eligibility check free?

Yes. The form takes about 60 seconds and there is no cost or obligation. If you pre-qualify, an accredited installer in your area will contact you to arrange a free survey.
