Home heating bills could fall by £24bn if the efficiency of 13m homes was upgraded to at least a C rating under the energy performance certificate (EPC) scheme by 2030, from research by Citizens Advice.

Warmer homes could help avoid 6,000 unnecessary winter deaths every & save the #NHS about £2bn by preventing millions of people from developing respiratory conditions including asthma.

Just used the Citizens Advice online chat to discuss a debt issue and they were actually incredibly helpful, I’m so impressed. Gave me so much info and didn’t rush me to end the chat at all. Amazing. #CitizensAdvice

The increase in the number of people who are coming to Citizen’s Advice for help is frightening. Most people don’t realize we are a charity and desperately need more funding to expand our capacity. Please help us to help them… 👇

Polly Toynbee talks to the people who describe themselves as ‘the only face-to-face service left’ - #CitizensAdvice. “Staff who have worked here for years, alongside admirable volunteers, say that they have never seen anything like this. They are well accustomed to advising people in trouble, but it’s hard to capture their sense of shock at what’s happening now.”

Quick #introduction.
Peruvian social scientist based in London. By day I research #digitalrights, #platformgovernance, #algorithmicbias and and help create accessible audits for #dataprivacy. By noon I volunteer at the cat shelter and lend my skills to my local #CitizensAdvice. By night I drink some herbal tea and watch some bake-off. 🐱
