With over 76,000 households in Hampshire and Isle of Wight suffering from fuel poverty the Surviving Winter Campaign is aimed at supporting those most at risk to heat their homes properly, eat healthily and keep active helping throughout the winter. By making a donation of up to £200, the equivalent of the Winter Fuel Allowance, you will be supporting our older people to combat rising energy prices and significantly reduce excess winter deaths. All monies donated go straight to those in need.
Why the community needs usThis is the generation that survived the war, survived rationing in the 50's and have gone without for their families, and now a combination of poor living conditions, bad diet, and circulatory or respiratory diseases, which are worsened by the cold, makes it difficult for many of them to survive the winter. All the money raised from the Surviving Winter Campaign will be used to directly benefit older and vulnerable people living in fuel poverty in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight.
