| Annotation | The Age Action Alliance is a practical development of concept initially devised by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) and Age UK. Its purpose is to engage a wide range of partners from civil society, and from the private and public sectors to collaborate in improving older people's lives, particularly on issues relating to deprivation and disadvantage. NEA chairs the Safe, Warm Homes Working Group of the Age Action Alliance. This new version of the 'Warm homes for older people' resource (previously issued March 2012) sets out the measures and benefits available to help older people to stay warm in their homes, and to ensure that their health and welfare is not compromised by living in cold, damp housing. Sections on reducing energy costs are supplemented by further information on sources of assistance on energy-related problems. (RH). |
