This would be more useful if the winter was coming. But nonetheless it is always worth checking that your heating and hot water is working as efficiently as possible.

Looking forward to hearing more from ✨ Donna Hall ✨ about the Wigan Deal and the possibilities for working together differently, starting with the person not the system or organisation #ALLIANCEConf24

Very sad to hear the news that Andrew Stunell has died. A kind, constant and generous supporter of National Energy Action. Steadfast voice for those in fuel poverty. He will be sorely missed. Thoughts are with his family and friends.

Good morning from #ALLIANCEConf24 👋🏼

📢 Kenny MacAskill MP today supported EnergyActionScotland's call for an energy debt write-off scheme.

📈 £3.1 Billion of energy debt has been accrued by households across the UK.

🗣️ 'There seems unlimited funds for weapons of war, but not war on poverty'

🚨We don’t do cold calls🚨

We’ve heard reports of cold calls claiming to be from a CAB adviser offering debt advice, and asking for bank details.

The Citizens Advice network in Scotland doesn’t do cold calls. This is a scam.

Disabled people and those living with a health condition who took part in new Consumer Scotland research have highlighted serious negative impacts from high energy bills.

People reliant on oxygen equipment at home can get help with energy costs associated. Helpful? Yes, but better if it were supported by in advance of need costs rather than retrospective payments. Should also be true for other life supporting equipment.

Next Monday we'll be discussing how to decarbonise electricity, without disadvantaging poorer families.

Good piece of analysis from Scottish Parliament Information Centre which clearly flags how little is known about the gap between what people actually spend & what they should have been able to afford. Fuel poor households spend what they can but far from the levels of energy for healthy lives.

It is so important that we listen to those most affected and act in a more responsible, fairer way. Excellent film from our friends at Fair By Design

More than 2500 customers were wrongly moved to prepayment and are rightly receiving compensation. ofgem.gov.uk/publications/c…

Don’t overpay for your energy, submit a manual meter reading around 1 April 2024.

With the energy price cap changing you could pay more if you receive an estimated bill.

Good luck to everyone sitting their City and Guilds Energy Awareness exams with us today

Simply not good enough. All 1st gen smart meters, not working in smart mode, should have been fixed or replaced by end Dec 23. But instead numbers are growing.

We've launched a consultation on the future of the price cap.

The price cap must:
💡Deliver a net-zero system that works for all consumers
💡Build on what we have learnt
💡Evolve with the changing energy market so no consumer is left behind
