United for Warm Homes: Celebrating 2023 – what comes next? (Friends of the Earth)

This year we’ve achieved so much – from reaching out to our communities to build campaign partnerships, to collecting petition signatures, to running amazing Day of Action events and engaging our MPs on the campaign.

Let’s get together to celebrate all the brilliant campaigning we’ve done to call for warm homes in 2023. We’ll be hearing from groups about their Day of Action successes and their campaign achievements over the last year.

Then we’ll be sharing a preview of our plans for next year, to keep the pressure on politicians following the Day of Action. Our political campaigning will ramp up in to run up to the 2024 general election when we’ll run a coordinated nationwide election campaign. We’ll make sure all political parties know that to get elected, they need to commit to urgently fixing our energy system so it works for people and planet.
