Pledge to tackle winter deaths

Age UK’s Spread the Warmth campaign is working to reduce needless suffering this winter. Last year’s excess winter deaths statistics deaths show that too many older people are still at risk. Sign up to Age UK’s winter pledge today. By doing so, you are demonstrating your commitment to tackling fuel poverty and excess winter deaths in your constituency.

By signing this pledge I commit to:

• Raise awareness of the dangers to health of cold weather and cold home
• Promote preventative measures that older people can take before a cold spell
• Encourage all sectors of the local community to make tacking winter deaths a priority
• To ensure that all my constituents are prepared for winter
• Work with my local Age UK to tackle the local priorities for older people
• Challenge energy providers to produce simple tariffs to make it easier for people to lower their bills

Age UK will take your photograph for our Spread the Warmth website and will tweet your support to our followers.
