The cost of energy crisis has been well documented in recent weeks with the raising of the energy price cap increasing bills by hundreds of pounds for households. The increased cost is leaving many struggling to heat their homes.
Money savers have been sharing their tips with the team at MoneySavingExpert, and a common theme is 'heat the human, not the home'. MoneySavingExpert founder Martin Lewis said: "This is a guide I really wish we needn’t be publishing. The reason I asked Sarah and the team to put this together is due to my overflowing e-mail bag of desperation from people who can’t afford their energy bills.
"So don’t see this as an ‘MSE or Martin says you should do this’. It's more that we’re trying to help provide some options and information for those that may need to drastically cut down on energy usage due to financial desperation and some help for others who may want to do it out of a commitment to green issues."
