FREE insulation subsidies now available in Otago
Give yourself the gift of warmth this year!
Cosy Homes Trust and Otago Community Trust have joined forces to boost the Government’s subsidised insulation scheme to be FREE for many Otago residents!
If your home was built before 2000, and you have a Community Services Card or a Gold Card with a Community Services Card endorsement, you are eligible for FREE ceiling and underfloor insulation where accessible.
Own a rental property? If your main tenant has a CSC, and the house was built before 2000, Cosy Homes and Otago Community Trust will boost your subsidy to 75%. As the landlord, you pay 25%.
Subsidies are available for a limited time, and are first-in, first-served.
To enquire, please call 03 425 7878, or fill in our 5-second form at www.cosyhomes.org.nz...
Cosy Homes Charitable Trust is a not-for-profit community organisation.

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?
People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.
This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.
Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.
