More than 400 charities, organisations and advisers have signed up to refer Scots struggling with their energy bills to a £4m support fund.
The Scottish Government scheme is being administered by Advice Direct Scotland, and ‘referral partners’ can still register to help clients hit by the cost-of-living crisis. The Home Heating Support Fund is open until 31 March.
Charities, housing associations, and community organisations which provide energy or debt advice, are encouraged to register online so that they can seek funding for people they support.
