The first NHS-backed three-way joint investment agreement with a group of social landlords to tackle fuel poverty has saved the health service tens of thousands of pounds, initial analysis suggests.

Oldham Council, Oldham Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) and Oldham Housing Investment Partnership, a group of 10 social landlords, co-invested in the ‘warm homes Oldham’ programme, which started in August 2013.

The initiative has helped 1,000 people and is was one of the first examples of the NHS supporting retrofit schemes in order to reduce the cost of health care and social services.
