National Energy Action
National Energy Action (NEA), the fuel poverty charity, campaigns so everyone can afford to live in a warm, safe and healthy home. This is something denied to millions because of poor housing, low incomes, and high bills.
As a result of the energy crisis, 5.6 million UK households are currently in fuel poverty. This means they spend at least 10% of their income on keeping their homes warm. Energy bills are twice as high as they were two years ago. Combined with poor housing and low incomes, this means that more people than ever before are struggling to afford the cost of heating and falling into debt.
Across England, Wales and Northern Ireland, we work to overcome the effects and causes of fuel poverty in four ways: We provide advice and support, we campaign and advocate for the needs of fuel-poor households, we carry out research to raise awareness and find solutions, and we provide accredited training. Our vision is to end fuel poverty.
We do not work alone. Partnerships and collaboration have been at the heart of NEA for over 40 years, helping us drive better health and well-being outcomes for people struggling to heat their homes.
