Colchester Borough Homes hosted an event at the Greenstead Community Centre on Thursday 14th November 2024, and Maljon attended.
It was a community-focused event which provided essential advice and support on damp, mould, and energy-saving issues. There was handing out of free products and some preloved clothing to help you stay warm this winter.
The Colchester Borough Homes' Damp & Mould team, Citizen Advice, the Financial Inclusion Team, as well as the retrofit team, contractors and community housing officers were there to assist.
