17 Oct, 2020by Steve NunnBreckland, Broadland, Great Yarmouth, Health and social care, Housing, Knowledge Base, News Article, North Norfolk, Norwich, Older people, Rurality, South Norfolk, Support for organisations and communities, West Norfolk

Many Norfolk households and businesses in off-gas areas are burdened with the added element of the unregulated prices of heating oil. A few weeks ago we asked for your help in raising awareness of ThinkingFuel, our collective heating oil buying scheme. And we’d like to say a big thank you to those of who have published the article we supplied or have shared posters and flyers. If you haven’t already shared the message, we should be most grateful if you would. Details of how you can help can be found below.
