Millions of pensioner households faced unaffordable energy costs last winter.  While the changes will provide some relief to these households, there will still be pensioners unable to afford the high cost of energy and living in cold damp homes. So now the Government must focus

We support Net Zero Scotland in its call for urgent action on the switch off of the signal that controls heating/hot water for over 100k households in Scotland. Deadline for meter upgrades is end June but signs are this will not be met. Huge uncertainty for those left behind!

📣 Calls to scrap the windfall tax ignore one crucial fact: energy giants made £115bn in profits in 2024, while millions of households still face eye-watering bills. Cold, damp homes are making people sick. Children are being removed from freezing houses. Patients are discharged

📢 Expanding the Warm Home Discount is welcome, and it’s right that the government has removed unfair restrictions that excluded too many in need. But let’s be clear: the scheme still misses out those most at risk; people with disabilities, long-term health conditions, and those

📉 Electricity should be cheaper, and the UK’s climate advisers agree. The Climate Change Committee is clear: people need to see the benefits of net zero in lower energy bills. But right now, a broken energy market means households are still paying fossil fuel prices for clean
