Story

We are asking for donations to allow us to continue to support some of the most vulnerable people in Bradford District.

This Christmas, many older people will struggle to pay bills and some wont have enough money to keep themselves and their homes warm as energy prices rise.

We are seeing a huge increase in demand to support older people in Bradford District to help them stay warm in Winter.

As part of the Warm Homes Healthy People partnership we supply those eligible with:

a heater (for those without any heating)

a warm pack (gloves, hat, socks, blanket and a hot water bottle)

help with the cost of boiler repairs

Please show kindness this Christmas and donate so we can continue our work to support older people stay warm.

What else are we doing?

We are running Energy Days with Green Doctor where people can get expert advice on energy and how to save money.

We also provide Information and Advice on benefits and support people to successfully apply for a range of benefits, helping them to gain the financial support they need to pay rising bills.

Any help that you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
