An £8m government fund provides energy saving items for low-income households.

Energy saving materials will be given free to some Isle of Man households, after Tynwald backed an £8m government scheme.

Environment, Food and Agriculture Minister Clare Barber said it could have a "big impact" in cutting bills.Under the Energy Efficiency Scheme, applicants will only be able to claim listed items, with the total support on offer to an individual or household capped at £750. Ms Barber said the scheme would have a "longer-term benefit" amid high energy prices by allowing households to "save money now and into the future".

Most of the items will be available to pick up at six depots across the island, while others including smart heating controls and loft insulation can be claimed online.
