If you have family who have been feeling cold in their home through winter, help may be at hand to make their home warm, dry, and healthy.

They might be eligible for Warmer Kiwi Homes, a government grant offering 80% - 90% of the cost of ceiling and underfloor insulation, and up to 80% off an energy-efficient heater, like a heat pump.

In August, the eligibility criteria were extended so over 50,000 more homes are eligible for insulation grants. It gets better - there are lots of community organisations offering extra funding to reduce the cost further.

Go to our website to check their eligibility, today.
