WARMER homes are being promised for people in the Hartburn area of Stockton.
Assessors from the Transco-sponsored Stockton Warm Zone project started working in the area yesterday.
It is the latest stage of their bid to help the residents of 13,000 homes classed as suffering from fuel poverty.
Warm Zone employees offer free energy-efficiency measures like loft lagging and wall cavity insulation to householders whose fuel bills account for more than ten per cent of their income.
Having finished in Hartburn, the team of assessors will move into Grangefield on November 1, Fairfield on December 1 and Wolviston on January 1.
