A foodbank has hit out over the latest energy price cap surge – fearing even more residents will be pushed into poverty.
Clair Coyle of West Dunbartonshire Community Foodshare (WDCF) said the situation on the ground is “horrific” as families brace themselves for the onslaught of more expensive bills.
Last week, Ofgem boss Jonathan Brearley said the energy price cap is expected to increase to £2,800 a year due to continued volatility in gas prices.
