Warm & Well in Merton
Our campaign raising awareness of the importance of preparing for winter and giving you support on how best to stay warm and well.
Warm & Well in Merton is a partnership between Wimbledon Guild, Merton Council and Age UK Merton. Between us we can help you with:
Information and advice
We are on hand to provide you free, confidential advice on transport, benefits, debt and housing support.
Warm & Well pack
Our Warm & Well pack will provide you with tips on how to keep warm and well next winter, as well as information about local activities, lunch and social clubs available near your home. The pack includes an Age UK Winter Wrapped Up guide which you can download from the Age UK website here. Also included is a checklist, which you can download here.
Financial support for individuals
We can provide grants for people in Merton to help with the costs of keeping warm in winter such as fuel costs, food, warm clothing and bedding.
Information for organisations working with those at risk
We can hold Warm & Well talks, engagement activities and advice clinics at your centre for staff or clients. We will give advice on preparing your home for next winter, tips on energy saving and how to help you stay warm and well when the temperature drops. Our team will also be there to provide 1:1 support as needed.
Please let us know if you are a member of a community group that would benefit from this.

...we need your help. Did you know, demand for our welfare services increased by 13% last year with over 2,000 people turning to us for help in their time of need? Demand continues to grow as times get tougher and budgets are cut for many services across the borough. Help us to continue this vital support.
