A £2 million fund has been launched to help people who may be struggling with heating costs.
Groundwork in Cumbria will help distribute the fund, to stop people making desperate ‘heating or eating’ choices this winter.
The Cadent Foundation’s Winter Support Fund aims to offer energy and food support to people living in the most vulnerable situations.
Food and energy vouchers will be available to people who are living in the most vulnerable situations and who Cadent Foundation’s current charity partners are supporting with energy efficiency and money management guidance.
The funding boost will be available between December and March and has the potential to support thousands of homes across the country in areas of high deprivation.
Each household can receive up to two vouchers, with the option of also having up to £100 to spend on essential heating and cooking appliances, such as heated blankets, slow cookers and air fryers.
