Age UK and E.ON Warm Homes wins Business Charity Award

Over many years we have secured funding to deliver EON projects around Benefit Checks and Warm Homes. Both the Information & Advice Team and the Handy Help Team have worked hard over the years and without fail have delivered.

Not just meeting initial targets but earning the opportunity to get additional work and meeting those targets as well. Age UK Stockport successful record speaks for itself.  This is not only good for us and future funding but most importantly is good for Stockport people as it means they are getting maximum benefit from this project. 

Some comments from the judges

"It's a fantastic long standing partnership. This shows that a long term commitment allows programmes to grow and flourish to achieve some amazing results. There is great impact measurement and mutual commitment with dedicated resource ensuring consistent delivery. A very solid partnership programme."

"This is fantastic success story and the partnership seems to be making a significant difference to the lives of older people across the UK. The average saving per household is very impressive indeed and with a significant number of older people struggling with the costs of living those savings will make a huge difference to people's quality of life and ability to stay happy and healthy. I also particularly like the idea that eon are introducing their older customers to Age UK and the support and information that comes with that."
