CSE is working with Northern Gas Networks (NGN) to offer funding to grassroots organisations in their area to provide energy saving advice to vulnerable households so they can achieve affordable warmth and safety. The Affordable Warmth and Safety scheme is being administered by CSE, and the deadline for applications is midday on Monday 30 September.
Grants of up to £21,000 are available for small organisations who meet the eligibility criteria and are successful in their applications to scheme.
The fund provides an opportunity to improve health and wellbeing and reduce stress for vulnerable households, and this can be through providing:
40 £1k grants are available for radical organisations taking action for a just, equitable and sustainable world; work that challenges abuses of power and aims to bring an end to the systems that cause injustice.
Grants are available for UK registered charities for specific projects that improves communication skills for disadvantaged adults and supports NEET people into employment.
The Energy Debt Fund scheme provides grants to help vulnerable and low-income households with problem energy debt. Please signpost this to any households you work with who need support.
