Funded Project: Description

EMPOWER  will provide personalised, targeted, energy advice to consumers within Edinburgh who are particularly vulnerable as a result of their recent unsecure living situation, low income, or health status.  Principally targeting individuals entering new tenancies, it will take an educational, preventative approach to stop new tenants from developing utility arrears and reaching a point of crisis, which may include self-disconnection.
