What is the LA FLEX scheme?
As the qualifying criteria is defined by your Local Authority, this has allowed local councils to extend the criteria beyond household income and benefits received. Subsequently, more homeowners that are pregnant, with growing families or older occupants can get access to energy efficiency measures via the LA FLEX scheme.
No one enjoys living in a cold home. This is even more frustrating if you happen to be paying high energy bills every month. Have you noticed draughts or are some rooms more chilly than others? These are some of the main symptoms that there may be an issue with the insulation throughout your loft and between your walls. Still, you might be hesitant to upgrade this insulation due to financial concerns. The good news is that a government programme known as LA Flex may be able to help. Let us take a look at this opportunity as well as why contacting the team at Lifetime Savings is a great idea.
