The HEET Project
HEET is a not-for-profit organisation working in the London Borough of Waltham Forest. We help households and businesses to:
- Save money on fuel bills
- Stay warm & healthy at home
- Avoid becoming a victim of burglary or fire
- Save energy & cut carbon emissions
New Trusted Traders website
We are pleased to announce the launch of a new website, Trusted Traders Waltham Forest. This web service has been set up by HEET and Age UK Waltham Forest to help residentsfind local trusted traders.
Traders already listed include plumbers, roofers, builders, electricians and more, all of whom have been checked for insurance, safety registrations and Trading Standards records.
Customers can search for, rate and comment on traders, and recommend new traders, and traders themselves can apply to join.
Making Homes Safer and Warmer
HEET may be able to make your home safer and warmer, free of charge, if you live in Waltham Forest (postcode areas E4, E10, E11, E17, IG8) and are aged over 60 OR living on a low income. Check your eligibility.
Making homes warmer: HEET can fit energy efficiency measures that will help you to save money on your heating bills and stay warm in winter. Saving energy also helps to reduce carbon emissions and so is good for the environment. Find out more about energy efficiency.
Making homes safer: HEET provides a free service fitting door and window locks, and other measures to help you to avoid becoming a victim of burglary or bogus callers. We also fit smoke alarms and provide fire safety advice. Find out more about security or fire safety
Healthy homes: Cold, damp and insecure homes are bad for physical and mental health. (Find out why it matters to keep warm.) We therefore encourage referrals from health and social care professionals and crime prevention workers to help us reach those whose health is at risk. Make a referral to HEET.
