£1.75 million added to Charis Park Homes Warm Home Discount scheme

Park home and static caravan residents who have been successfully awarded the £150 warm home discount payment through the Charis Park Homes scheme will also be sent a Heat the Home bundle containing products designed to increase the energy efficiency of their homes. This additional benefit is the result of £1.75 million worth of additional funding being added to the Charis Park Homes Warm Home Discount Scheme by E.On Next and Ovo Energy.

The additional funds may also cover the replacement of older, inefficient appliances such as fridges and cookers with new, more efficient models for those who expressed an interest during the application process.

"E.On Next and Ovo Energy have generously added to the Park Homes Warm Home Discount scheme as a way of ensuring that eligible park home households across the UK avoid falling through any further cost of living cracks when it comes to heating their homes," commented Charis director of client services Jonathan Hunt. "If you have already been awarded the £150 Warm Home Discount you will automatically receive the Heat the Home bundle. Park home residents who have not yet made an application are encouraged to check their eligibility and take advantage of these extra benefits."

The Heat the Home package includes simple to install radiator reflector foil, insulation film and draught excluder for improved warmth retention. Appliances are available for those who ticked the appliance box on their original application. Unfortunately, homeowners cannot make a retrospective application for an appliance.

Eligibility benefits apply - applicants need to be living in a park home, and either receive government support or benefits, or have a household income below £18,723.

For anyone who has yet to apply, they can do so through Charis' dedicated Park Homes Warm Home Discount application page.
