On 29 January, Green Party Leader for England and Wales Zack Polanski highlighted the particular importance of in-person fuel poverty support in London, and the service Selce is providing to those most in need.
Speaking at the GLA, Zack went on to explain to London Mayor Sadiq Khan the current funding challenges in our space.
“Looking at fuel poverty strategy and the Warm Homes Plan…it’s a real focus on digital rather than what can happen in person – I want to flag up specifically South East London Community Energy. Previously they’ve had GLA support and that’s now stopped.”
As part of our Crowdfunder running from December to January, we wrote to local MPs, councillors and members of the GLA – and this is one of the results of that campaign – read more about what we achieved with our Crowdfunder here.
