community engagement
We believe in a healthy home for everyone.
We’re partnered with GMCA on their Feel The Benefit campaign. We go to community events, town centres and markets across Stockport, Salford and Trafford to raise awareness about home improvement grants.
We can help you through the system, offer support and advice on your home.
