The weather in the UK is crap, it’s a well know fact. In fact we are so obsessed with the weather its the number one topic of conversation closely followed by soap operas and WAGS. You can’t guarantee that there will be a summer and that it will be warm for several months a year as last year we had the wettest year since records began. So keeping your house warm and toasty can be a year round battle for this damp island. Draught proofing and following some basic DIY can reap massive savings in energy bills by optimising your house.

I love this infographic from Everest which has 20 essential tips for keeping your house warm and toasty and saving money on energy bills.

The design has a very cool retro feel and the detail in the illustration is exceptional. Design wise I have to give this a 9.5 out of 10 and i love the tips such as using old fashioned draught excluders and using heavy curtains to keep rooms warm – they really do work and cost very little to implement. Good practical advice.
