ABSTRACT
This chapter describes a proposed tool for evaluating the outcome of investment in affordable warmth. The development of this tool could also be of use to both local and health authorities in monitoring the effects of such investment. Ideally, it would be used to provide evidence of significant benefits in terms of reductions in costs to the health service, other services, or to building maintenance budgets. The case could then be made for further investment with assistance from a variety of different Government Departments or funding bodies.
