Stay Warm & Well this Winter campaign launch event
When: Thursday 7th November 2024 - 9am-12pm
Where: One Stop Shop, Patchway
This winter we are launching our Stay Warm & Well this Winter campaign to support our most vulnerable residents through the coldest months.
We have teamed up with Warm & Well from Severn Wye and Age UK South Gloucestershire and together we will be offering help and advice with energy and food bills and making sure residents are getting any benefits they are entitled to. Long term sustainable support is also available including new boilers and insulation, energy efficient light bulbs and hygrometers which measure the humidity in homes.
The Stay Warm & Well this Winter campaign will be launched during the week commencing 4 November with three information events at our One Stop Shops in Kingswood, Patchway and Yate, from 9am-12pm.
- Tuesday 5 November, Kingswood One Stop Shop
- Thursday 7 November, Patchway One Stop Shop
- Friday 8 November, Yate One Stop Shop
As part of the campaign, the council will also be giving out 1,000 free warm packs to residents struggling with energy and heating costs. The packs, funded through the government's Household Support Fund, contain hats, socks, hand warmers, blankets and hot water bottles and will be available at a number of locations. Details will be available shortly on our cost of living help page.
