Scarves, thermometers and heated blankets are being given out to vulnerable people struggling with the soaring costs of energy bills as the cold snap continues in the UK.
‘Warm Packs’ have been delivered to residents across Stockport to help 'keep everyone warm and well this winter' as rising inflation and Russia's invasion of Ukraine continues to see energy prices rise.
Stockport council announced that along with Age UK, Stockport Homes and Disability Stockport, 1,200 of the packs have been delivered to the most vulnerable in the borough, with temperatures in recent days plummeting below freezing.
