Energy Saving Week 2023
Citizens Advice and Energy Saving Trust are working together to help you save money on your energy bills and make sure you’re getting the support you’re entitled to. From having a 4 minute shower to ditching the tumble dryer - there are lots of ways you can save energy around your home. And if you’re struggling to pay your bills or top up your prepayment meter, there is support available.
Coronavirus
Last year's focus was largely on the life-changing pandemic which had a
devastating effect on people's health and livelihoods.
Since the first lockdown, staff and volunteers here immediately started working from home to ensure we could still help as many people as possible. Our main queries were redundancies and furlough, benefits and Universal Credit. You may have seen the limited success regarding the campaign for the Universal Credit uplift to be made permanent (an additional £20 per week). This was agreed by government to extend until September 2021. So, the campaign continues for this to be made permanent.
Many of us are still working - in part - from home but our service continues and we are helping more people than ever by telephone
