Support for you this Winter
Some older people will feel they have no option but to turn their heating off this winter in the face of another year of sky-high energy bills. But support is out there.
Listening to you
Age Bath & North East Somerset, Bristol, Somerset and Gloucestershire have written a joint letter to the Mayor of the West of England Dan Norris.
We expressed “collective concern” and called for “a more balanced approach to the provision of public transport within our region.”
