Residents across the Stockton-on-Tees Borough are being urged to sign up to a free scheme which could save them money on their energy bills.

Registrations for the 'Big Community Switch' are open until Monday, December 9.

Run in partnership with Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council and iChoosr, the Big Community Switch scheme offers a personal energy deal for all who sign-up, with no obligation to switch providers.

Energy suppliers compete for the opportunity to offer households the lowest energy tariff, with this year's exclusive offer coming from British Gas.

If residents do choose to go ahead when they receive the offer, they simply need to follow the online instructions to complete the switch.

And in Stockton-on-Tees, average savings of more than £140 on a dual fuel tariff are available.

Councillor Clare Besford, Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council's Cabinet Member for Environment and Transport, said: "We know that energy bills remain extremely high for lots of our residents, so signing up for the Big Community Switch is the perfect chance to make some savings.

"Changing energy suppliers can be a daunting task, but it's really simple to sign up and receive your offer, so make sure you take advantage of the scheme before December 9, when registrations close.

"With no obligation to take the offer, you have absolutely nothing to lose and I'd urge as many people as possible to take part. There are excellent savings to be made, with the average resident in our Borough set to reduce their dual fuel bill by £143. For electricity only deals, the average saving is £104."

To sign-up for your energy offer, visit the Big Community Switch web page.

If you or someone you know can't access the form, you can also register by calling the Big Community Switch registration line on 0800 048 8439. Lines are open Monday to Friday from 8am to 5.30pm.
