Energy support:
Community Links Bromley (CLB) have secured a grant from the Centre for Sustainable Energy to deliver a local Bromley based SGN Safe and Warm Scheme offering support for people struggling with the current cost of living crisis and energy price cap increases.
We are delighted to be working our partners the South East London Community Energy cooperative (SELCE) and St Edwards Mottingham to deliver the support on the ground at various locations around the borough over the coming months.
The types of support will include personalised energy advice (e.g. energy efficiency behaviour change), energy efficiency measures and energy schemes, Priority Services Register sign ups, benefits eligibility checks and debt advice, energy crisis support (fuel voucher or emergency funding) and other crisis support (e.g. food, clothing or housing) and carbon monoxide safety awareness advice.
SE London Community Energy can provide impartial and expert advice in the following areas:
- Reducing energy bills and debt support.
- Contacting energy companies on your behalf.
- Support and guidance for grants and discounts.
- Home visits are available for extra support, if needed.
The latest information about the sessions will be posted on the Community Links Bromley website SGN Safe and Warm Scheme. Please also check for updates on the TBB Facebook page.
Warm Spaces:
Warm Spaces are free places where people can go to get warm, save money on their heating costs and make new friends, so avoiding social isolation. Many warm spaces have cafes that provide hot drinks as well as light meals and free wifi. You can find locations of warm spaces by visiting our map.
