🍂 November Top Tip for TORC Residents 🍂
As we move into the colder months, a little preparation can go a long way.
This month’s top tip is to stay warm, safe and connected. Check your heating system, test your smoke alarms, improve ventilation to prevent damp and mould, and remember to look out for neighbours who may appreciate a friendly check-in.
Small steps now can help create safer, warmer homes and stronger communities throughout the winter.
🏡 Stay Warm
✅ Stay Safe
💡 Save Energy
🤝 Check In On Neighbours
Together, we can make our communities stronger this winter.
We also have a TORC Youtube Channel which runs through heating demos/ gas boiler resets
