In response to the persistent problem of ‘fuel poverty’, which disproportionally affects minority ethnic and disadvantaged groups; EMF – in partnership with London Energy and SWEB Energy – launched the ‘Energy Savers’ Campaign in 2004.
Designed both to raise awareness of the problem and help those experiencing its terrible consequences, the campaign sought to distribute free low-energy light bulbs among the most impoverished households in the country. On the whole, 28,000 light bulbs were given to families on low income.
