Special Notice for Haydon Parish Residents Only
You will be aware that several Tynedale communities are now running successful oil buying groups and reducing the cost of domestic fuel oil by several pence per litre from this area's suppliers.
If you are interested in making such savings by joining a Haydon Bridge Development Trust organised group or require further information, please forward your contact details by e-mail to fuel@haydon-bridge.co.uk with an indication of your annual consumption if possible. There is no obligation for you to become a member but this information will assist the organisers.
78 households have already signed up for this free service. The first order deliveries for January 2012 have been completed at a very worthwhile saving and without problems. Even orders for as little as 250 litres have received the group's discount.
The next group order will be notified to members in the last week of March for an April delivery. Don't leave your order until its too late.
