The Community Council for Somerset - a part funded public interest company - have started a bulk ordering scheme that now covers Cannington.
Basically, you order your oil from them, they add all their orders together, then a deal is negotiated with a supplier at a discounted price.
I used the scheme for the first time in January and on 1000litres of heating oil I saved 5.4p per litre, so £54.00 in total plus the 5% vat.
The scheme is open to private customers and businesses, there is a cost to join - £20 for private and £100 for business customers.
To obtain more details please contact Jason Tinley on 01823 331222.
The scheme are in fact looking for a co-ordinator in the village to compile the monthly orders, the co-odsinator does not pay the joining fee.
Pete.
