We need more to keep us #WarmThisWinter

No one should be living in fuel poverty. That’s why people are gathering across the UK today – from Cardiff to Glasgow and from Liverpool to London – to demand urgent action from the government to tackle the energy crisis and keep us #WarmThisWinter.

And you can join in online to add pressure

With energy bills going up, many of us are struggling to stay warm or make ends meet. But hot water bottles and woolly jumpers aren’t enough. Our energy system is broken, and we need urgent support from the Government and investment in sustainable solutions so we’re not facing the same crisis this time next year. To help highlight this, will you share a message on social media now?

Just take a photo of yourself holding up a hot water bottle and the message “We need more than this to keep us #WarmThisWinter” and help flood social media with selfies from across the UK (alternative suggestions below!)

Suggested message to go along with your photo: We need more to keep us  #WarmThisWinter. I call on Rishi Sunak & the UK Government to end fuel poverty, insulate homes, invest in renewables, and stop any new oil & gas

 

Together with the rally happening right now outside Westminster, we’ll make sure Rishi Sunak and his Government won’t be able to ignore us. You can see some examples of hot water bottle selfies from the 350 team below!

Don’t have a hot water bottle? You can take a picture of anything else you use to keep warm – a jumper, a big scarf, an electric blanket – and it will still work with your message!

 

Here are some examples of photos by 350 staff 👇
