This is a local not-for-profit organisation devoted to helping people reduce carbon, adapt to climate change, tackle fuel poverty and build community spirit. It manages both the Oxfordshire Affordable Warmth Network, and Cocoon Free which help homeowners and private renters to get free (or heavily discounted) cavity wall and loft insulation. Tel: 0800 107 00 44. They offer free surveys for insulation, advice on heating, keeping warm, saving money on energy bills, grants, switching supplier, and other ways to cut bills.
