Do you qualify for a payment of £150 towards your next heating oil purchase?

If you have no energy debt (you don’t owe money to your electricity or oil supplier) and you are struggling to pay your bills, you could be eligible for a one-off payment of £150 towards your next oil order (before 31 March 2023).

It is not generally possible to self refer to these funds, but rather through a partner agency such as Citizens Advice.

The Digital Support Derbyshire Network has been launched!

The Digital Support Derbyshire Network aims to tackle digital exclusion across the county. Bringing together individuals, communities, voluntary and statutory organisations, the network seeks to ensure all Derbyshire residents have opportunities to get online affordably, safely and with confidence. 

By bringing together individuals and organisations with the best digital inclusion skills, knowledge and talents, the network will enable the sharing of best practice, skills and resources. This will improve the outcomes of individual projects and ensure a greater impact within our communities.

We can all do something to help, big or small. If you are interested and enthusiastic about digital inclusion and would like to get involved, please contact j.peck@ruralactionderbyshire.org.uk for more information.
