Act on Energy Energy Health and Outreach Scheme EHOS
Funded Project: Description
The ‘Energy and Health Outreach Scheme’ (EHOS) will provide a holistic approach to addressing fuel poverty, through a multi-agency approach, with a focus on health and care professionals. The project will employ Affordable Warmth Outreach Workers to support the newly formed Primary Care Networks, alongside the developing dementia friendly communities.
The officers will be community-based, working with GP practices and other health and social care organisations to provide energy advice to people in poor health and to increase the knowledge of energy issues amongst health care professionals.
