As we enter the colder months, I know the cost of living and the rising costs of energy is worrying many people. Recently, I hosted a
Winter Support Summit with local organisations across the area to discuss how we can work together to help people access support in the coming months.
One of the main themes from the summit was that there is a wide range of support, however, we need to make it easier for people to access this support. That is why I have created this guide, in order to assist in signposting people to help including the action the government is taking, to help households with energy bills.
- The £400 energy bills rebate available to every household
- Keeping energy bills as low as possible this winter with the Energy Price Guarantee
- £300 cost of living support for pensioners who receive the Winter Fuel Payment
- Support for households which are not on the grid.
To learn more about the support you might be eligible for, please visit helpforhouseholds.campaign.gov.uk or call 01507 601111.
Alternatively, you can contact me directly using the details at the end of this guide.
I hope you will find the information useful.
