Repowering London warmly invites you and your colleagues to Energy Safeguarding: free training and vital information for those working in Health and Social Care, Housing, Charities and Community Orgs, Support Workers, Advice Workers, Carers, and Volunteers.

Working directly with vulnerable households, you likely encounter those whose health and access to vital heat and light is impacted by the use of prepayment meters.

Too many vulnerable households suffer serious health impacts by not being able to manage their energy supply and being wrongly forced to use prepayment meters – but these factors are not routinely covered in risk assessments and care plans, or general energy efficiency and affordability advice.

The training covers:

• New rights and protections for prepayment meter households – unpacking the regulations

• Support for households medically dependant on warmth and power

• Support for those most at risk from the health impacts of cold, damp homes

• Clear information and practical interventions
