Keep Warm

Posted on: November 14th, 2021

Each year Engage with Age distributes warm packs to older people in south and east Belfast to alleviate the impact of cold weather. The packs, which will last for several years, include thermal clothing, house thermometers, and information on keeping homes and rooms warm.

There is a criteria to receive a warm pack which includes older people living in fuel poverty, older people living on their own, and people aged 75 and over. This is not the full criteria list and the number of packs available is limited.
