NEA Annual Conference
14-16 September 2015: Sheffield
National Energy Action
The theme for this year's conference is based on the NEA's vision for the future for the 4.5 million households who live in the misery of fuel poverty across the UK.
The conference will focus on six vision statements and expert panels of speakers will explore each of these in turn, drawing upon the experience of those attending the conference.
What does the future look like for the fuel poor? The NEA's six vision statements:
- A future where all fuel-poor households receive the assistance they need to improve the energy efficiency of their property.
- A future where there is no illness or premature death resulting from cold homes.
- A future where no household is disadvantaged because of their property type, tenure or location.
- A future where communities and individuals are empowered to take control of their energy generation and behaviour.
- A future where everyone can afford to heat and eat.
- A future where no household is disadvantaged because of how they pay for their energy and where all consumers can engage with the competitive energy market.

Sheltered Housing Conference
30 September 2015: Central London
Capita Conferences
This conference provides a crucial policy update on the future of accommodation for older people under the new government.
As housing providers and commissioners adapt to a changing funding landscape, new roles and responsibilities under the Care Act and an increasingly ageing population, this well timed event will showcase new approaches and nationally recognised examples of excellence in sheltered housing.
Designed to equip those attending with tools to overcome the challenges of delivering affordable and high quality housing to a diverse older population, this key event provides insight into pertinent topics including:
- Funding, commissioning and managing stock to meet the future housing needs of an ageing demographic.
- Collaborative working with local authorities, health providers and the private sector to develop sheltered accommodation as a strategy for preventing, reducing or delaying care needs.
- Outlining the impact of Universal Credit on sheltered housing providers and service users and clarifying which schemes are exempt.
