A couple with five children say their lives have become a “nightmare” while they feed their kids less healthy ready meals as they struggle through the cost of living crisis.
Whinmoor couple Kevin and Nicola Gomersall, 40 and 39 respectively, have said rising costs have caused their lives to become a misery. They’re having to feed their kids cheap ready-meals, stay in all the time as they can’t afford to go out and they're spending £50 a week just to take one child to school.
Energy costs have also been through the roof for the large family with the children, aged 3, 10, 13, 15 and 17, all on their various computers or games consoles throughout the day when they’re off school.
