Reduce padding/space before footer

I want to reduce the space before the footer on all of my pages. I tried several code snippets from similar threads but none of them have worked so far. Anyone knows if there is a specific case for my page?

While editing, you can see that the section is quite spacious, and the grid doesn't start on top of the footer - meaning that I can't simply move the text upwards.

The sections in the footer are very similar to the ones on the page. It looks like you have that footer section set to S and bottom aligned. If you go into the section settings you should be able to adjust these values.

These are my current settings, but I've tried playing around with these and the problem is that no matter what settings I choose, the grid starts a bit down in the footer, which is what makes the space between the footer and the section above it so big. 

@Ziggy Wow, that was it! That piece of code was needed before but is actually redundant now. Thank you!
