The Big Issue Foundation Fighting Fuel Poverty
Funded Project: Description
The Fighting Fuel Poverty project will directly support 1,000 socially and economically excluded Big Issue vendors and at least 1,000 of their family members experiencing fuel poverty over 24 months. It will train 7 frontline staff to achieve a Level 3 City and Guilds Energy Awareness qualification – supported by 3 Specialist Energy Advisors that have already achieved the qualification – and impart expert energy advice to Big Issue vendors and their families facing high energy support needs which inhibit their ability to access energy support from anywhere else.
