Do you want to save money on your fuel bills? Sign up to our successful collective switching scheme that aims to help save you time and money on your fuel bills by finding you a better deal.
You could save on average around £320 a year if you sign up to the scheme.
Since collective switching started in August 2013 it has saved residents a total of over £91,000 on their energy bills.
Make sure you don’t miss out on these fantastic savings. Sign up to the free collective switching scheme and change your energy supplier.
Around 97 per cent of households that have registered for the scheme benefited from savings.

It is free to register on the scheme. Registration opens on 2 August 2016 and the auction will take place on 11 October 2016.
Collective switching offers households the opportunity to sign-up to a scheme that allows the council to enter an auction with energy companies on their behalf, to secure a discounted energy price.
The scheme is run in partnership with iChoosr Ltd, the UK’s leading provider of collective switching.
You have until 10 October 2016 to register for the scheme. The auction will then take place on 11 October, offers will be issued on 21 October and the scheme will close on 29 October.
