Community Resource Oil Buying Club
Now is the time to take advantage of cheaper heating oil. The price of oil is usually at it’s highest during December to February. You can save even more by being a part of our oil club.
Community Resource is a local charity that runs a Community Oil Buying Club to reduce the heating costs of those living off gas.
By bringing communities throughout Shropshire and surrounding areas together and making the most of joint buying power, we can make savings and pass them directly to people like you whose fuel costs are high simply because you aren't connected to mains gas.
Being a member of the Club not only gives you great savings on your fuel bills but removes the often time-consuming task of ringing around suppliers for the best price. With local coordinators on hand to help those without email, and access to suppliers who can deliver to remote properties, the scheme can cater for everyone’s circumstances.
“It’s a brilliant scheme, easy to order and fantastic savings! A great service for Shropshire.”
“That's an amazing price! I had to check it twice on the calculator. Why did we wait so long to join the Club?! Thank you very much.”
Membership to the scheme is £27 per year and enables us to cover the admin costs for running this scheme.

Next Order Deadlines are Tuesday 2nd December and Tuesday 6th January.
You may have heard that landlines are changing and that the UK’s telephone network is going digital. These changes will affect everyone who has a landline they’d like to keep using.
If you have loved ones with additional needs such as elderly relatives or someone who uses a telecare device or pendant alarm, our Connected Together initiative encourages you to take a few simple steps to support them through the switch.
