Utility Aid

Utility Aid, a utility consultancy supporting charitable organisations, is subscribing to TEAM’s Bureau service for utility bill validation for an estimated 1500 sites in the charity sector. Validating electricity, gas and water bills on behalf of the charities signed up to the CUI TEAM is expected to process 10,000 bills by the end of 2011.

Utility Aid has helped hundreds of charitable organisations make better use of their budgets by offering simple, clear and impartial advice on how to save money and make better energy purchasing decisions. Their services are available to all charities and have helped put several million pounds back into the not for profit sector. Through the Charity Utility Initiative (CUI), Utility Aid is working towards bringing disabled people back into employment as Energy Efficiency Managers. As a result of the contract with TEAM, Utility Aid has already been able to offer employment to one additional disabled person.
