Reduce the amount of energy you use by fitting low energy light bulbs. These use one fifth of the electricity of normal bulbs, last ten times as long and each saves around £10 every year on electricity bills. For details of reduced price light bulbs contact your local Energy Efficiency Advice Centre: T: FREEPHONE 0800 512 012.
