Please join us for the launch of the report Fuel Poverty, Cold Homes and Health Inequalities. With fuel poverty on a sharp rise across the country, this report looks at the evidence on why fuel poverty occurs, who it affects, and the impact cold homes have on the health of those living in them. It proposes both policy suggestions at both the national and local level that could reduce health inequalities across the UK by tackling fuel poverty and cold homes.
