Register for energy bill workshop

Tweed Shire Council is seeking views from the community and community, health and housing service providers about energy poverty.

Energy poverty means spending more than 10% of household income on electricity costs. Energy poverty is also about avoiding heating, cooling or hot water use because of concerns about electricity costs, at the expense of health or wellbeing.

Please join us for an interactive workshop to help Council understand challenges, opportunities and potential solutions.

Location: South Sea Islander Room, Tweed Heads Civic and Cultural Centre, Cnr Brett St and Wharf St, Tweed Heads

Date: Wednesday 17 April

Time: 9:30 am – 1:00 pm

Includes morning tea and lunch refreshments

Please advise any accessibility needs for your participation in this event.

Council would like to understand:

how common is energy poverty in the Tweed?
how might energy poverty be identified?
what support or resources could be provided to support those experiencing energy poverty?

This workshop will identify and begin developing practical solutions that are most needed by members of the community.

Registration is essential. All are welcome. Please RSVP by emailing jmoad@tweed.nsw.gov.au or calling 02 6670 2400 by 10 April 2024.
