18 to 24°C: No risk to sedentary, healthy people

Below 16°C, Diminished resistance to respiratory infections

Below 12°C, Increased blood pressure and viscosity

Below 9°C, After 2 or more hours, deep body temperature falls

• Cold housing negatively affects dexterity and increases the risk of accidents

• Children living in cold homes are more than twice as likely to suffer from a variety of respiratory problems than children living in warm homes

• Mental health is negatively affected by cold homes and fuel poverty in any age group

• More than 1 in 4 adolescents living in cold housing are at risk of multiple mental health problems compared to 1 in 20 adolescents who have always lived in warm homes

• Cold housing negatively affects children’s education ‘The Health impacts of cold homes and fuel poverty’: The Marmot review Team. 2011

— ‘Community Budget’ pilot: 1,000 homes out of Fuel Poverty

— First of its kind nationally

— Involves local partners coming together to fund a preventative service, they will then share the savings

(through reduced health and social care demand)

— Detailed analysis of health and social care demands impacts

— Results of the project will be reported back to Government who are looking at this as a flagship scheme.
