Affordable Warmth Action Group
Walsall's Affordable Warmth Action Group (AWAG) meets bi-monthly and consists of representatives from the council, health, energy consultants, fuel suppliers, housing association partners, voluntary sector organisations, residents and community groups. It is a delivery vehicle for the Affordable Warmth Strategy and its main objective to deliver the key aims of the Strategy. For example, AWAG will consult partner organisations to identify the best way of reaching vulnerable people and groups and the most appropriate format to provide information, work with faith organisations to ensure language and cultural issues are addressed to ensure more isolated groups access information and training, and research whether there is a need to establish an Energy Saving Company (ESCO) in Walsall.
