Wednesday 26 November 2025 will be National Energy Action’s Fuel Poverty Awareness Day (FPAD). Six million households are in fuel poverty, with a growing mountain of debt putting pressure on those least able to afford it.
The energy crisis has been going on for over three years, meaning household budgets have been stretched and many are struggling in cold, unsafe and unhealthy homes. Debt is at record levels. The situation is stark, with people either having to accrue debt or live in homes that will negatively impact their physical and mental health.
As the date gets closer, National Energy Action will publish a supporter pack with key facts, figures and quotes. Sign up below to get details about the day as we release them.
