Residents in the Carlisle area are being encouraged to make sure they do not miss out on the chance to secure a free central heating grant.
Carlisle City Council's Warm Homes Scheme ends this month, but there is still time to apply.
The scheme, delivered in partnership with the community interest company Warmer Communities, provides free gas central heating to eligible homes.
The closing date for applications is Wednesday September 30.
As well as gas, the council may also fund the cost of oil, LPG or air source heat pump heating systems for homes in rural areas of the Carlisle district.
Homelife Carlisle Home Improvement Agency, provided by Carlisle City Council, is administering the grants and each home will have an energy survey and support offered to access grants towards insulation or affordable heating.
Eligibility for the scheme is not wholly dependent on household income but households with a low income are encouraged to apply.
