Hereward Housing is ahead of Tony Blair in championing the use of energy efficient lightbulbs.
Prime Minister Blair said every home should switch from old fashioned bulbs to energy saving ones.
He was speaking as the Government revealed its energy policy and said that if every household installed just three energy efficient lightbulbs, the electricity saved would supply all our street lighting.
And Hereward has recognised the need for savings and has been giving out energy efficient lightbulbs in “Welcome Packs” for new residents in the last 12 months.
In addition Hereward operated a scheme for people on benefits who were then eligible for four free lightbulbs.
