The Heat is On
NEA has produced this interactive DVD with funding from npower Health Through Warmth to promote energy efficiency and affordable warmth.
This DVD, with a soundtrack in thirty one different languages, will hopefully encourage you to save money, save energy and help protect your environment.
Many people experience not only the problems associated with fuel poverty but face language difficulties that prevent them accessing the information they need to keep warm and well.
This can put them at greater risk of contracting cold-related illnesses. The Heat is On will provide the encouragement and assistance you need to make improvements to both your home and the way you think about using and saving energy.
A series of regional launch events have been held . Free copies of the DVD continue to be available from our Library or our Coventry office. These are the languages available:
