Lunchtime Learning

  • Lunchtime Learning sessions are generally held from 12:00 - 13:00. These are short training sessions focusing on quick messaging and short, 'chunky' learning outcomes for participants/learners. They are a chance to catch up on topics integral to the provision of our services.


    In the third sector, we are all getting busier and busier and have learned to adapt rapidly to changing circumstances- the COVID-19 crisis has taught us that we are even more resilient, creative and adaptable than we thought. An extra hour here and there spent developing the team no longer seems awkward to most of us, so we hope you will be able to fit these sessions into your hectic schedules.

    Lunchtime Learning - Fuel Poverty

    FVA lunchtime learning sessions are aimed at raising the skills and capacities of local service providers interested in improving or enhancing their provision in Fife.

    Fuel poverty continues to be a significant problem for those struggling to make ends meet in Fife, and the increases in electricity bill costs from three years ago have not significantly changed since then.  Many Fife residents are still finding it tough to heat their homes in the winter months.

    At this session, Michael Hildrew from Cosy Kingdom will give participants a detailed overview of support available for those in fuel poverty in Fife, including:

    • What is fuel poverty, the causes, effects and who is at risk
    • Rising energy prices, what it means and has meant, for those most at risk from fuel poverty
    • How to identify the signs of fuel poverty in the people you work with
    • How the energy advice services can help people in Fife who are experiencing fuel poverty

    Delivered by Cosy Kingdom
    Date: 22 October 2026
    Time: 12:00 - 1:00pm
