Energy Advice


At Citizens Advice Bury & Bolton (CABB), we are here to help.
In collaboration with Age UK Bolton we deliver personalised energy advice directly to clients. The project provides support to anyone who is “fuel stressed” and anyone who would like to build their resilience and confidence in managing their problems.
Essentially – whatever your problem, we will provide tailored advice and information including:
Changing suppliers where there is a possibility of better tariffs
Information and advice on making your homes more energy efficient
Tips for budgeting and explore options to obtain additional funding, such as Warm Home Discount
Any schemes that may support you
Additionally, vulnerable (for example, low incomes, elderly, single parents and those living with disabilities) clients may be entered onto a Priority Services Register with their energy supplier which may see them eligible for free gas checks, priority repairs and other benefits.
We also provide advice on Smart Meters and the benefits that they can bring.
Our team will offer holistic support. We will look at other areas where energy and money could be saved. We will also offer to complete a benefit check for you, and look at options to maximise your income and offer support with any other issues, such as housing.
