Aims

For fuel poor and vulnerable residents across Renfrewshire LEAP ‘Making It Happen’ offers free home energy advice and identification and installation of appropriate practical measures, such as draught proofing, changing light bulbs to LEDs, identifying and remedying complex heat loss and helping householders access specific support when needed (through referral to partner organisations or wider government schemes as appropriate).

All practical actions are accomplished for free by LEAP experienced team for residents who are less able financially and physically to carry out tasks which can help keep them more comfortable and save money in the long term.
