She grew up in the post-war years and brought her children up in the tough economic climate of the 1970s. But pensioner Glennis Hill says life has never felt so hard.
Soaring fuel bills mean the 74-year-old dare not put her bungalow’s radiators on for more than an hour so she has come here – to Gannow Community Centre in Burnley, Lancs – to enjoy some food and company in a heated room.
The centre is one of the venues being supported by our Warm Hearts campaign which is helping fund places signed up to the Warm Welcomes platform, a register of safe spaces across the UK.
