Join the Healthy Homes team in 2025

The Healthy Homes team at Frome Town Council are looking for enthusiastic and dedicated volunteers to join our Energy Champions who ensure that local people get the energy support they need. This includes helping to lower energy bills, dealing with energy debt, increasing energy efficiency and retrofitting homes. With just a few simple changes, most homes in Frome can be adapted into cooler spaces in summer, warmer havens in winter, and drier throughout the year – helping households to save money, cut carbon, improve health, and feel more comfortable every day.

Healthy Homes is part of Green and Healthy Frome, a collaboration between Frome Medical Practice, Edventure and Frome Town Council, funded by the National Lottery’s Climate Action Fund (CAF). The team is also supported by the Centre for Sustainable Energy and the Centre for Energy Equality. 

Energy Advice Volunteer Co-ordinator, Caroline Wajsblum said, “Joining the crew means becoming part of a friendly and supportive team. Full training will be provided and hours of volunteering, whether daytime or evening, can be flexible so everyone is very welcome.

“As an Energy Champion you will provide energy advice to groups and individuals with initiatives such as regular drop-in energy sessions, pop up outreach events, phone calls and home visits.”

Cllr Fiona Barrows said, “If you can spare some time and would like to make a difference to people’s lives in our town, reducing their energy bills and lowering their carbon footprint, we would love to hear from you.”

To ask any questions about the role or to apply please send a CV and cover letter to cwajsblum@frometowncouncil.gov.uk. The deadline for applications is 13th August 13th at 5pm.
