Julie Thomas' Story

Julie from Grimsby received a fully funded gas boiler from the South Humberside Energy Efficiency Partnership scheme.

Living on her own in a bungalow, Julie was relying on an old boiler that was very inefficient and costly to run.

“It was a big relief when I found out it was going to be fully funded. My old boiler was 46 years old!"

I’ve noticed a big difference, it’s lovely and warm. I put it on for an hour in the morning and then again at night. Before the new boiler I’d be in dressing gowns with hot waterbottles strapped to my belly!"
