People who are struggling to pay their energy bills can get up to £1,500 to go towards their gas and electricity bills as prices continue to rise.
A number of energy companies are offering hardship funds worth up to £1,500 in a bid to help customers during these challenging times. It comes as energy bills are expected to rise again this year with households already paying sky-high prices.
According to analysts at Cornwall Insight, the price cap could hit an eye-watering £3,359 in October - followed by another rise to £4,266 in January. The price cap sets a limit on the rates a supplier can charge for each unit of gas and electricity, the Mirror reports.
