Cosy Homes South Tees 2

Middlesbrough Environment City Trust (MEC) delivers activities to assist vulnerable, fuel poor people across Middlesbrough and Redcar & Cleveland. The boroughs have extreme levels of poverty, including areas in the top 25% deprived in England. With the ongoing energy crisis, these levels have increased. The project takes a proactive approach to tackling fuel poverty with a one-to-one advice programme across South Tees, the provision of a robust referral pathway to support vulnerable clients through: energy advice; access to energy efficiency measures; crisis support; income maximisation; and wellbeing support.  The project will continue to support those in fuel poverty and will expand upon its past work.
