We also have a Clothes Swap — swap something old (in good condition) for something different. There is an Energy Help Desk too — where you can get advice on how to reduce fuel bills by making your home more energy-efficient and save money: adding insulation and draught-proofing, solar panels and heat pumps etc Find out more here
