Winter Warmth Support Campaign

Click Here to download the Toolkit

A warm, safe home is essential for good health and well-being of our Oxfordshire residents. Cold, damp housing can lead to serious health issues, including respiratory problems, heart disease, and mental health challenges across all age groups.

We're here to help.

There's support available to help our residents stay warm this winter and beyond. We've created a toolkit of resources (and attached here) to help you find the right support, from the Better Housing Better Health service, and warm welcome from local libraries and the award winning the Energy App.

Why is this important?

Investing in warmer homes is a proactive approach to improving health and reducing the risk of illness. By addressing the root causes of health problems, we can build stronger, healthier communities for all as a Marmot Place.

How you can help

Spread the word! Share our toolkit and the messages with your networks and community groups to ensure that everyone in need knows about the available support. The toolkit includes thermometer cards which can be ordered, as well as digital resources and text for newsletters and social media posts or WhatsApp groups etc.
