Due to the extreme weather conditions we have seen over the last two weeks we have seen a significant increase in the number of repairs raised relating to works associated with the wind and rain we have experienced, such as roofing repairs, broken fences and external brickwork. While all emergency elements are being dealt with within normal timescales, some items of follow on works are likely to take longer than normal to complete. We are working with our service delivery partners to ensure this impact is worked though as efficiently as possible and thank you for your patience and understanding.
Winter Warmth Fund
BITMO’s Board has opened a new Winter Warmth Fund for this winter. The Board understand the cost of living crisis that is affecting many people and have allocated money from their budget to pay for goods that can help you and your family keep warm this winter.
BITMO households in need of extra support can apply for a winter warmth pack which will contain large fleecy sherpa blankets, hot water bottles with covers and fleecy socks, with the amounts depending on how many people are in our household.
