AS REGARDLESS OF WHETHER YOU ARE A HOMEOWNER OR TENANT THERE ARE MANY THINGS YOU CAN DO TO REDUCE HOW MUCH ENERGY YOU USE AND THEREFORE HOW MUCH MONEY YOU ESSENTIALLY ARE THROWING AWAY!
According to the Energy Saving trust we could say a whopping £30 a year simply by switching electrical appliances from standby to off!
By using a washing up bowl instead of washing up using running water we could save another eye watering £25!
a further £18 could be saved by fitting a water efficient shower head.
