Ask the City of Chester MP candidates to back our energy crisis and warm homes pledge

On 1 December the people of Chester will choose their new MP.

Soaring gas prices are hurting householders and businesses in Chester and leaving people struggling to pay their bills.

Years of government inaction has left our homes damp, cold and expensive to heat. We're faced with an energy crisis and it's time for everyone to do their bit, including our new MP.

We’re contacting all the candidates standing to be City of Chester's next MP to ask if they will pledge to tackle the energy crisis. The solutions to keep warm, cut energy bills and reduce emissions are out there. But we need  to act now.

Can you join us? We're asking all the candidates to support:

  • Urgent additional financial support to those who will still struggle to keep their home warm.
  • An emergency funding programme to insulate our homes.
  • The transformation of our failed energy system to work for people and planet, not profit.

Whoever wins the election needs to hear from as many prospective constituents as possible. Add your name and we'll pass the message on to the candidates before 1 December.
