Community Oil Schemes
For those in rural locations, buying heating oil can be costly. There are a number of oil buying clubs locally that may help save on your fuel costs. A small yearly membership fee is usually charged (£20-£30 for domestic customers). We've included details of surrounding counties for those of you just over the border.
