Healthy Homes for all 2

The project will increase awareness of domestic energy issues and reduce the risk of fuel poverty amongst harder to reach and BME communities, likely to be disproportionately affected by the impacts of high energy prices, the risk of self-disconnection, or arrears from the Covid-19 period. The project is led by the Croydon BME Forum which has a long track record of community engagement, with specialist and advisory support from Croydon Council. An energy adviser will deliver training sessions across the borough and online, which will include energy efficiency, energy bill and tariff advice, energy debt support, and support applying for grant funding. The project will fund promotional campaigns for residents who do not speak English as a first language.
