Heating for less - If you use oil

Welcome to the HeatingOilForLess (HOFL) scheme.
The majority of the communication is via email as this makes it more practical for me to run the HOFL scheme. I collate all member requirements for a scheduled order date. The most competitive price is then obtained from a choice of 13 local Suppliers with delivery normally the same week.
Payment is made directly to the Supplier (normally following an invoice from them to you following delivery). If you have not been a customer of the chosen supplier before, they reserve the right to request payment prior to or upon delivery and will contact you via phone to arrange. HOFL does not take part in the payment process.
Once I have negotiated the best price I update all HOFL scheme members via email with the negotiated price.
Please spread the word about the scheme to your neighbours and friends – the more who join and use the scheme, the more money can be saved and the greater benefit to the environment with reduced fuel lorries on our roads. There’s a wealth of information about the scheme on the website.

Best wishes

Borrow from loan sharks and you’ll be swimming in dangerous waters – that’s the warning this Christmas as Warwickshire County Council’s Trading Standards Service team up with the Illegal Money Lending Team to raise awareness of the dangers of loan sharks and offer practical help and support to Warwickshire people.

In the run up to Christmas, Trading Standards Officers and members of the Illegal Money Lending Team will be holding advice and information events at shopping centres and supermarkets across the County.

* Sat 27 November 10am to 3pm The Co-op Clemens Street Leamington Spa
* Sat 4 December 10am to 3pm The Clock Towers Shopping Centre Rugby
* Sat 11 December 10am to 3pm Maybird Shopping Park Stratford upon Avon

If you are in debt and need advice follow the link above and then http://www.talkaboutdebt.co.uk/community/blog/uk-best-debt-advice-charities

Remember:

• That loan sharks are acting illegally and the law will be on your side.
• That if you are seriously in debt the sooner you seek help the sooner you can be given help

Young Cyclists in Fenny Compton

During these dark evenings several teenagers have been spotted on bikes without any sort of lights, reflectors or reflective clothing.   
Parents please be aware that this is extremely hazardous.  To avoid the unthinkable, please ensure any young person in your family who rides a bike (just nipping to the shops perhaps, or back from the stables?) has a bike with lights and good reflective clothing or reflective band.  A van driver had to find his brakes pretty sharpish recently when he rounded to a corner to find two young ladies zipping through the village without lights or reflectors!
