Environment report from City Hall, Jan 17

For many years we have been pushing as the GLA Labour Group for a London-wide version of the Islington and Camden. SHINE Fuel Poverty Referral Scheme, in which residents who are considered to be at risk of fuel poverty are referred to council officers for a full energy audit. They also are then put in touch with other agencies who do benefit entitlement audits, smoke alarm checks and so on. The SHINE scheme is now be able to take referrals from anywhere in London, including Barnet as well as Camden, so this could make a significant dent in fuel poverty locally. So if you are concerned about fuel bills, or know somebody who is, go to http://www.shine-london.org.uk/

 

I have continued to support the campaign over the loss of diving facilities at Copthall pool: see my letter for publication.
