Northern Gas Network, Energy Matters Yorkshire
There is a nationwide agenda to tackle the problems associated with fuel poverty. This project will support vulnerable customers in the Yorkshire area.
Groundwork Yorkshire already support many vulnerable customers who are struggling to pay bills or top-up prepayment meters. Fuel poverty and stretched household budgets also have indirect impacts for example, not having the money to get appliances serviced or chimneys swept, using a hob or cooker for warmth, or blocking vents, could all increase the exposure risk to carbon monoxide poisoning.
This project aims to reduce energy costs, increase energy-efficiency and improve health & wellbeing
