Sefton Carers Centre Energy Support for Carers
Funded Project: Description
The project will target unpaid carers, living in the borough of Sefton. Project delivery will be led by Sefton Carers Centre, supported by volunteers and partnering with Sefton’s Affordable Warmth Team. The project aims to reduce the number of carers experiencing fuel poverty through the delivery of energy efficiency advice to individual carers and groups of carers. Support will be provided to maximise finances via welfare benefit advice to prevent/reduce fuel poverty. Information will also be provided to help carers access any capital grants that are available for energy efficiency measures such as boilers and insulation for their home, in addition to small energy efficient items being provided via the project.
