What are Energy Advice Helpline doing to make Blue Monday 2025 greener?
We understand that a lot of pressures at this time of year can build up and eventually all come crashing down – we can help with this.
The United Kingdom’s current energy landscape is a great source of distress for many of us, which is why we make it our goal to make people of the country aware of government backed energy upgrades that are available. And the best part is – it’s all free!
If eligible (find out if you are here), you could receive renewable energy upgrades like air source heat pumps, solar panels, and insulation upgrades which will all make your home a greener place to live. You will also save money to boot!
The more households that join this green revolution, the closer we are as a country to securing a green future.

Going green…with tree planting
In partnership with TreeApp, we planted our very own company tree, and in fitting with the theme of Christmas it was a Norwegian Spruce!
Trees are our lungs and we vitally need them. After centuries of damage and deforestation, only 13% of our land is forested.
This needs improving.
The UK needs to plant 1.5 million hectares of woodland by 2050 to meet the carbon neutral target.
Here are some of the benefits that come from trees:
- Combatting Climate Change
- Supports Biodiversity
- Health and wellbeing
- Aids in Food production
- Creates urban green space
