While a fall in inflation is generally good news for consumers, September’s lower than expected figure is what will be used to determine the rise to benefits next spring. As a result millions of people who are already struggling will be less able to afford the essentials.
CPI rose by 1.7% in the 12 months to September 2024, down from 2.2% in August 2024. Read the release ➡️ https://t.co/VlulVDztIW

It was incredibly concerning speaking to so many older people’s groups about the looming cuts to Winter Fuel Payments. The pressures and the risks to the health of pensioners this winter are profound.
Dozens of community organisations supporting people in the most disadvantaged areas of the country told us of the ‘catastrophic’ and immediate health impacts of the decision to means test winter fuel payments. Read our new report: https://t.co/oCXkqZ9G07

Outrageous that 1 in 5 privately rented homes doesn’t meet decent homes standard = more than a million families & households paying rent to live in conditions posing serious risks to health Good coverage of @Peoples_health analysis in @Independent @yorkshirepost @MENnewsdesk
One in five private rented homes in England don’t meet decency standards. We’re calling on the government to properly resource the enforcement of housing standards in the private rented sector so that people’s health is not threatened by unfit conditions. https://t.co/Q2ySvUgRaj

A brilliant blog from my colleague @lisawhiting_
My first blog for People's Health Trust on an issue very close to my heart - homes. Everyone deserves a home that is safe and secure but there is a long way to go to in the UK to make that a reality.
