Five members of the ADE Team are gearing up to run the Victoria Park Half Marathon on the 8th of June on behalf of National Energy Action (NEA).
National Energy Action work across England, Wales and Northern Ireland to ensure that everyone can afford to live in a warm, safe and healthy home.
As a result of the energy crisis, 6.1 million UK households are in fuel poverty. This means they spend at least 10% of their income on keeping their homes warm. Energy bills are twice as high as they were two years ago. Combined with poor housing and low incomes, this means that more people than ever before are struggling to afford the cost of heating and falling into debt.
Sky-high bills and cold, damp homes threaten to become the new normal for millions of people. We believe that this must not be allowed to happen. We offer advice and support to fuel-poor households in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, as well as advocating for policy and regulation to protect the most vulnerable households. We also offer training to frontline staff of other organisations, to they can best support fuel-poor households.
With your donations, NEA work to end fuel poverty and advocate for policy changes that will transform lives.
