Millions of people are struggling with soaring bills and the rising cost of living. Even with the government's price freeze, the average energy bill has almost doubled in 12 months.

Here in Leicester and Leicestershire people are left with the impossible choice of staying warm or putting food on the table. We need our government to do more and your MP can help make that happen.

We're calling for:

• Urgent support for people dealing with sky-high energy bills. Far more help is needed – through price guarantees, targeted extra payments and fair energy pricing.
• A new emergency programme to insulate our heat-leaking homes. Upgrading our homes with insulation is the cheapest and easiest way to permanently reduce our bills and cut emissions.  
• An energy system powered by cheap, green renewables, not fossil fuels. To end the need for expensive and polluting gas in the long term, we must move to a homegrown, renewable energy system.

Will you sign this #WarmHomesLeics petition asking your MP to take action for warm homes?

This petition is jointly hosted by Climate Action Leicester, The Race Equality Centre and Leicestershire and Harborough Climate Action.
