About UK 8020

UK 8020, pronounced UK eighty twenty, is a Not for Profit Community Interest Company (UK 8020 CIC) and social enterprise.

Community Interest Companies have their own government regulator and are registered at Companies House and are similar to charities. All profits are channelled back into the company to enable its objectives to be achieved.

UK 8020 was set up by its Founder Robert Lee to tackle Climate Change and also end global Fuel Poverty.

The goals of the company are purely humanitarian and are not politically motivated. It is not an activist organisation and believes that change is made by empowering individuals, ordinary people who when given the correct incentives can make a difference. It aims to help the most vulnerable in society by creating awareness and calling upon those more able to help.

• Help to prevent the deaths of 30,000 senior citizens every year identifying communities most at risk

• Create universal awareness in communities of fuel poverty and those most at risk.

• Engage the public in a hands on humanitarian effort

• Empower communities to become passionate and involved in something that effects their very own communities

• Re-build caring communities by engaging community leaders
