Funded Project: Description
Huntington’s disease (HD) is a hereditary, life-shortening, neurological illness. HD families face incredible disadvantage and severe financial challenges. The Scottish Huntington’s Association’s financial wellbeing officers will provide income maximisation advice, debt advice, future planning and support to households living with HD. A new energy officer will provide intensive energy advice support to HD clients and will up-skill the existing team. The aim is to reduce fuel poverty and raise awareness of energy efficiencies by providing intensive support with lasting solutions, to the their highly vulnerable client base.
