Scheme launched to help save residents money

Published: 10/04/2017

A FREE scheme to help residents save money on their energy bills has been launched by Copeland Council.

The Copeland Big Switch returns following a successful initial campaign earlier this year, in which a high number of householders saved large amounts on their bills.

The scheme involves the organisers creating a large group of customers interested in cheaper tariffs, who then offer their custom as a group to the energy firm offering the best deal.

COPELAND Council has reaffirmed its commitment to a cleaner, greener environment.

At yesterday's full council meeting, Copeland's members endorsed the new Environmental Policy, which says the borough's drive for regeneration and investment must be coupled with a focus on sustainable growth.

Copeland's portfolio holder for the environment, Coun David Banks, said: "We must lead by example, being environmentally responsible in every service we deliver - as well as encouraging a low carbon economy across the borough."
