Fuel poverty is a year-round crisis that doesn’t end with the winter. Badly insulated small flats and overcrowded homes can overheat quickly. People need to run fans, keep fridges with medicines, and use extra water. Health risks spike with inside temperatures over 25C. #FuelPoverty #Heatwave

There is no Warm Home Discount scheme in NI. Households remain in crisis over energy bills. There is urgent need for greater energy bill support, including: • Introduction of the Warm Home Discount scheme. • Introduction of an energy social tariff for those in the greatest need.

Households in Northern Ireland have had to make big cutbacks due to the cost of energy. 27% reduced their use of hot water, including less frequent showers/baths or washing up with cold water due to rising energy prices and the cost of living. @lucidtalk.bsky.social #FuelPoverty #Water #Summer

Fuel poverty is a year-round crisis that doesn’t end when the cold weather does. For people reliant on daily medical equipment and those who live in badly insulated homes and need to run fans or other cooling devices, summer brings challenges and strains on household budgets. #FuelPoverty #Heatwave

Listen back to our fantastic member Jenni Millar, who was on BBC Radio 4 yesterday, highlighting the need for better protections for private renters to address damp, repairs and unaffordable rent increases:

Moisture from cooking, bathing and drying clothes indoors can result in damp and condensation in your home. Ensuring proper ventilation can reduce risk of respiratory diseases. Open your window for a few minutes even in the winter and make sure any ventilation fans are working.

According to the latest @utilityregulatorni.bsky.social survey, only 1% of respondents overall reported that they had signed up to their supplier’s Customer Care Register. For more information, go to tinyurl.com/7adxu2xt #Utilities #CustomerCare #CustomerCareRegister
