Description

East Sussex County Council Adult Social Care and Health Department's Public Health Division intends to commission a service provider to provide a Warm Home Check Service for the eligible population of East Sussex as part of the East Sussex fuel poverty reduction programme.

This programme is coordinated by the East Sussex Energy Partnership and aims to protect individuals and communities from the effects of living in a cold home. Its ambition is to ensure that practical advice and support is provided to vulnerable people about how to stay warm and well at home, and where to get further specialist help, in order to reduce the number of households that are fuel poor.

The East Sussex fuel poverty reduction programme has the following five work streams:
o Provide advice to people living in a cold home and a Warm Home Check service for eligible vulnerable people which includes a home assessment, advice and preventative works;
o Train health, housing and social care professionals and voluntary and community sector (VCS) workers to help people whose homes maybe too cold for their health and wellbeing;
o Raise awareness among professionals and the public about how to keep warm at home;
o Identify vulnerable people who live in a cold home and refer for help, and
o Provide vulnerable people with information and advice in order to maximise income.
