FEEDS Team

Chair

Theresa Griffin

Theresa is a former Member of the European Parliament (MEP) for North West England (2014 to 2020), during which time she was strongly involved in Fire Safety and Energy Poverty and was very supportive of FEEDS concerns. She now brings her experience to the Forum to amplify its voice in a context where legislative processes, boosted by the Energy Transition, have never been so crucial for the safety of all citizens.

Vice-Chair

Anne Lucet-Dallongeville

A consumer and tenant rights activist since 2003 at local, national, European and international level, Anne has long been involved in a French multi-stakeholder Working Group dealing with electrical safety at home.
She learned from this experience that residential fire safety rests at least as much on prevention than on fire-resistant buildings and that effective firefighting measures must also start by ensuring safe electrical installations.
Together with inhabitants’ and citizens’ associations, as FEEDS Vice-Chair Anne now aims to promote fire safety through prevention at EU level in the current context of energy performance improvement.
