Our WarmHomesLeics Coalition is part of a national United for Warm Homes campaign with local and national groups across the country.
Together, over the next 6-12 months, we aim to build enough pressure on our MPs and their political parties to get the current (or failing that, the next) government to do the following:
- Provide real financial support for people in fuel poverty now
- Set up and fund a nationwide street by street home insulation program, starting in the areas with the highest levels of fuel poverty
- Provide real support for UK renewable energy generation
- End government support for the fossil fuel industry.
