The cost of living crisis is proving to be tough for many people, including Noel and Sue Radford who are parents to 22 children. They star in the Channel 5 series 22 Kids & Counting.
In a recent episode, Noel and Sue spoke about how they were struggling to keep their smart meter topped up during the cost of living crisis. Mum Sue said: “It’s ridiculous, I’m sure I put £50 on that yesterday morning. This is getting beyond a joke, it really is ridiculous.”
Dad Noel added: “We have a top-up thing which we like. It’s handy because you keep on top of your bills and you don’t run up a big bill, but it’s just getting crazy stupid, we feel like we’re down the shop every day topping up.”
