Frontline Workers

This page is for Plymouth's frontline workers. Here you'll find our referral forms and how we can help

Our Energy Team offer a free to all advice service to support people with energy issues in Plymouth. We work with frontline workers in the city to help residents tackle energy issues they may be facing.

Evidence shows a strong link between good health and wellbeing and a healthy home. If you are supporting a resident that has energy issues, we can work alongside them, and you, to resolve it.

We will always prioritise people who are in a ‘no heat’ situation or at risk of self-disconnection.

We can provide mediation with suppliers, landlords and housing associations where needed.

We can also apply for energy related grants, energy efficiency measures, schemes to tackle cold, damp homes and to maximise income.

How help is given

  • By phone
  • By email to energyteam@plymouthenergycommunity.com
  • In the home – we offer home visits if otherwise access to support by PEC is not possible. Please ask for an appointment with a PEC Advisor.
  • In the community, at accessible events in the city – details are on our website and newsletter.
