How to get help in Hull
Does Hull City Council take part in ECO4 Flex?
Hull City Council's Warm Homes Team lists ECO4 among the grants it can help homeowners apply for, and will check eligibility and support applications. We found no ECO4 Flex statement of intent on the council's websites. Source: Hull Warm Homes grants page.
Is the Warm Homes: Local Grant available in Hull?
Yes, but places are limited. GOV.UK lists £3,402,806 for Hull. Hull City Council's Warm Homes Team says high demand means it cannot guarantee every eligible applicant a grant, so it prioritises households in or at greatest risk of fuel poverty. Source: Hull Warm Homes: Local Grant page.
What other heating help does Hull City Council offer?
Hull City Council's Warm Homes Team runs a £99 Warm Homes Scheme for households that do not qualify for any other grant. It covers cavity wall and loft insulation only, subject to a survey. Source: Hull Warm Homes grants page.
