Dorset Energy Advice Centre (DEAC) and North Dorset District Council (NDDC) are working together to deliver a FREE half day session on Fuel Poverty next Monday 4th March 2013, 9:30am – 12:30pm in their Council Chamber at NDDC, Nordon, Salisbury Road, Blandford Forum, DT11 7LL .
With the advent of the Green Deal and rising energy prices not likely to get cheaper, this training will give attendees an excellent introduction to the definition of the term, the causes, and what can be done to mitigate it.
The training is opened to all individuals who volunteer or work for organisations and community groups who have an interest in this field.
The training covers the following topics and provides a resource pack including a fuel poverty checklist:
- What is meant by fuel poverty
- How it can come about
- How to spot it
- What help is available
