The value of data-driven decisions in social housing is frequently emphasised. So too is the importance of taking action to support residents living in, or at risk of, fuel poverty.
This CPD webinar, run in association with Switchee, brings those two agendas together. It considers which data is available on fuel poverty, how it is being collected, and its advantages and limitations.
Adam Scorer, chief executive of National Energy Action, joins Martin Hilditch, editor of Inside Housing, for the discussion.
Together, they explore how best to use data to support resident engagement on the issue of fuel poverty – and, more specifically, how it can support appropriate and useful intervention.
Learning objectives
By the end of the webinar, learners will be able to:
- Describe the sort of data that is available related to fuel poverty
- Detail the advantages and limitations of current data
- Talk through possible collection methods for data relating to fuel poverty
- Describe how social landlords can use data to a) identify those residents living in fuel poverty; b) determine where and which interventions might be needed; and c) monitor the impact of interventions
- Explain how accurate data might support more successful and sensitive engagement with residents
