Quieter Neighbourhood Support

Quieter Neighbourhood Support is part of a new package of noise insulation, vortex protection and home relocation support that aims to have a positive impact on the communities around the airport and exists to improve the wellbeing of those in the areas most affected by noise.
It delivers on the commitments made in the latest Noise Action Plan, that sets out a range of improvements to reduce the impact of noise.

Quieter Neighbourhood Support includes:

The Residential Insulation Scheme (RIS)

Offering up to 100% funding of eligible insulation costs where they are recommended by a free independent survey, including homes that may have had measures provided by us through previous schemes.

""

The Home Relocation Assistance Scheme (HRAS)

The Home Relocation Assistance Scheme is increasing the maximum payments by 60%.

The Quieter Schools Programme (QSP)

An improved offer for noise insulation and ventilation support, including to schools who have benefitted from previous initiatives.

This includes repairs for vortex strikes and the provision of pro-active protection for homes in high impact areas.
