As home heating oil prices climb to their highest level in years, one local councillor in Co Tyrone has launched an initiative to help local residents save on their bills.
Newly co-opted Sinn Féin councillor Patrick Withers has started an "oil club" in the Mid Tyrone area, where members can club together to order heating oil in larger quantities and ultimately save cash.
Oil prices locally have seen unprecedented rises, and with prices potentially set to rise further following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, heating costs could place further pressure on struggling families.
