@RustyBertrand
There's a #centralheating hashtag with not many toots.

There's a UK "community interest company" called #Depher which can be found on fedi (mastodon.social) and on other social media platforms may offer advice/help.
They do what councils used to do.

... and then I created the #depher hashtag on the fediverse so that Community Plumbing & Heating could be found easily ...

Anyone can become homeless... even those with good jobs can suddenly see their life torn apart!

@Depher has helped a young homeless couple with items to help get them through the winter! Items that they shouldn't need unless they chose to go camping in the wind & rain in January! But here we are in 2023 with way too many people in situations like this! Thank you James for all you do!!
