A Derry councillor to propose to the council that warm banks be established in the city this winter.
Aontú Cllr for Ballyarnett Emmet Doyle said he would propose the plans at a meeting of the full council this week and hopes to gain the support to set up the warm banks throughout the district to support people who are struggling with energy costs.
The action is being taken in response to the cost of living crisis, with similar actions already being taken in England and parts of Europe.
