Saga has announced that its Platinum credit card will be taken off the market on March 28th 2019 and that accounts must be settled in full by that date. This means that customers have two months to pay off the balance or arrange to transfer it to another provider.

HARCVS is a partner in the Warm & Well project which seeks to assist residents and patients who are most at risk from the physical and emotional effects of being too cold at home, such as those on low incomes, with long-term health conditions, and the frail or elderly.
Support is varied according to people’s individual needs, but can cover energy switching, benefits advice, improvements to the home so it is both warmer and more efficient, crisis interventions where someone is without heating or hot water, and support with fuel debts. Funded by the British Gas Energy Trust, the project is only active until the end of December this year, so people are encouraged to get in touch sooner rather than later.
Referrals can be made into Warm and Well by calling 01423 740 001 or by visiting www.first4contact.org
