We run a bilingual English/Somali advice service accredited with the Advice Quality Standard (AQS) that covers a wide range of issues, including welfare benefits, housing, social care, employment, and utility bills. We also offer employability and digital literacy training, non-regulated money guidance (e.g., support with household budgeting), and free ‘Wellbeing and Social Space’ sessions for women.
We have recently been awarded a grant from the Energy Redress Scheme for a new project to support people who are in, or at risk of, fuel poverty. The aim is to help 150 households in west London to access advice on improving the energy efficiency of their homes and applying for relevant financial support.

3. Conducting a workshop to train the project team in conducting home energy audits. Project team members will have completed the City and Guilds Level 3 Energy Awareness Certificate by this point, so the workshop should bridge any gaps between formal training and practical competency.
4. Conducting a short workshop with service users to provide information on different energy-saving measures and raise awareness of the project activities.
