Get a clearer overview – and start making smarter upgrades for a home that’s warmer, greener, and cheaper to run.

Start your energy check

What is an energy health check?

Your energy health check is a full assessment of how your home uses – and loses – energy. You’ll receive a detailed plan created by retrofit experts, with clear guidance on what improvements to make, in what order, and why.

Think of it as a personal roadmap for your home – helping you:

• Feel warmer and more comfortable
• Lower your energy use and bills
• Avoid expensive mistakes
• Get clear, expert guidance

Whether you’re planning home improvements, considering a heat pump, or just want to futureproof your home, this is the smart way to start.

Why it matters now

Many people upgrade their homes bit by bit – adding insulation here, a new boiler there. But without a clear plan, it’s easy to waste time or money doing things in the wrong order.

This is your chance to get ahead with expert guidance – and local funding to help make it happen.

“I’ve found that in the colder winter months, I can now use my heating at a considerably lower temperature to maintain a stable, reliable, and cosy background warmth.”  Erica, in Eynsham

What does it cost?

Thanks to local match-funding, you’ll pay just half the usual price:

• 1–2 bed home – £187 (normally £375)
• 3–4 bed home – £300 (normally £600)
• 5+ bed home – Ask for a quote – we’ll still take £300 off

Your fee includes the full expert assessment, your personalised plan, and access to further support from the Cosy Homes Oxfordshire team.

Who can apply?

You must live in one of these West Oxfordshire parishes: Cassington, Eynsham, Freeland, Farmoor (Cumnor), Hanborough, North Leigh, South Leigh, or Stanton Harcourt & Sutton.

This is a limited-time, first-come-first-served offer – funding is limited and assessments are filling up fast.

Don’t wait until next winter to wish you’d acted sooner. Book your energy health check now – and start making your home work better for you.

About CAPZero

The Community Action Plan for Zero-Carbon Energy (CAPZero) is the first of its kind in the UK. Its mission is to create a zero-carbon energy system in the Eynsham (Cuckoo Lane) Primary Substation Area before 2050 through long-term stewardship, benefiting both current and future residents while providing a model for wider action.

CAPZero is a project of Low Carbon Hub. Working in collaboration with Cosy Homes Oxfordshire, the project is supporting homeowners in the CAPZero area by offering match-funded Whole House Plans.

CAPZero models how a cluster of communities in West Oxfordshire can create a zero-carbon energy system in their local area, in a way that works for them. It is a plan developed by community representatives together with experts, and it has now entered an exciting implementation phase. Everyone is needed: residents and businesses can lead the way, by taking action now.
