Four in every 10 households will struggle to pay their next energy bill, new research has revealed. The research, carried out by YouGov and commissioned by British Gas, follows the announcement of Ofgem’s 54 per cent increase which began being implemented on April 1.
Rapper and mental health campaigner Professor Green has joined a campaign with British Gas to get people talking about energy debt, the Daily Record reports. As part of the intiative, British Gas launched the British Gas Energy Trust, to support those struggling with their finances.
This is part of a new Charitable Trust founded by the gas supplier to try and help customers suffering under energy bill financial stress amid the cost of living crisis. British Gas can offer help and support even to those who are with different providers under the scheme.
