The Green Homes Grant has closed to new applications on 31st of March 2021 at 5pm. The scheme was previously extended to the end of March 2022. But in a new press release from the government, they announced that the applications will end a year early on the 31st of March 2021.

Households with the lowest income in England can receive a voucher of up to £10,000, covering the full cost of renovations.
